Greek Feta Burgers

Substitute ground round for the ground lamb, if desired...or you could use ground chicken or turkey, but I would stick with ground dark-meat to get that extra flavor boost that the ground white-meat poultry doesn't have. Read more You can cook these on the stovetop for about the same time per side, if you don't want to fire up the grill. I like to serve these with homemade seasoned oven-fries with some extra (I double/triple the recipe) Cucumber-Dill Sauce on the side for dipping. Prep time includes heating of the grill while prepping burgers. Enjoy. Recipe adapted from Cooking Light. See less
