Greek Burger

A greek Salad was my inspiration for this burger. We had this for dinner with fresh corn on the cob. It was oh so delicious.

Greek Burger

• 1.3 lb. ground turkey or ground beef, 93% lean
• 1 tsp. dried oregano
• ½ tsp. garlic powder
• ½ tsp. salt
• ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
• 5 Hamburger buns
• garlic flavored olive oil or olive oil
• 5 Tbsp. feta cheese
• 5-10 pepperoncini peppers, sliced thin
• red onion, 5 very thin slices
• cucumber, 15 very thin slices
• 1 large tomato, 5 thin slices
• Kalamata olives, whole, for garnish.

Mix together first 5 ingredients very well with your hands. When mixed well divide evenly into 5 portions. Shape into burger patties and refrigerate until ready to cook. I like to do these a few hours in advance to let the seasonings meld.

Cook on hot grill for about 8- 10 minutes or until no longer pink in center. For the last minute brush inside of HB buns and grill with olive oil for about 1 minute. Place burgers on buns and top each one with 1 Tbsp. feta cheese, pepperoncini's, 1 red onion slice , 3 cucumber slices, and 1 tomato slice. Garnish on side with olives.

Shady Brook Farm is my favorite brand ground turkey.
