Provided by Claire Robinson

Time 43m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 pounds ground lamb
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/2 pound feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/3 cup fresh parsley leaves, coarsely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
4 to 6 rolls or buns
Easy Tzatziki, recipe follows
1 cup Greek whole milk yogurt
1 English cucumber, seeded, finely grated and drained
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon lemon zest plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the lamb, garlic, feta, allspice, parsley, salt and pepper, making sure not to overwork the mixture. Form the lamb mixture into 4 to 6 patties.
  • Heat a grill pan over moderately-high heat and cook the lamb burgers until a nice crust forms, about 4 minutes. Turn the burgers over and let cook another 4 minutes. Let the burgers rest 10 minutes. Serve topped with Easy Tzatziki on a roll or bun.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice and dill. Season with salt and pepper. Chill.
  • What Really Makes This Recipe Sing: Allspice is one of those secret weapons in savory foods. You can't put your finger on it, but you know it is there. It was named by the English, because they thought it contained cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Shh, it is also the secret ingredient in Cincinnati-style chili.
  • What to toss in if you have it: Feel free to add some chopped fresh mint to this as well. Having a cocktail party? BYOC and makes these into mini's. Grab one before you serve because they will disappear fast.

GRILLED LAMB BURGERS W/ MARINATED RED ONIONS, DILL & SLICED



Grilled Lamb Burgers W/ Marinated Red Onions, Dill & Sliced image

DH and I made these tasty lamb burgers from the Grilling 2010 magazine a couple of nights ago. The recipe is credited to Tony Rosenfeld of "Big Guy Cooking." I really liked these burgers. DH liked them, but likes my Moroccan Lamb Burgers (also posted) better. The fresh dill in my garden wasn't looking so hot, so I subbed 1 Tb dried dill. This worked, but I'm sure the fresh would be even better. I would definitely make these again. Prep time includes 15 mins marinating time.

Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/4 lbs ground lamb
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 small garlic clove, minced, smashed to a paste
kosher salt, to taste
6 ounces feta, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices (about 8)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
4 whole wheat pita bread, warmed
1 tomatoes, 4 thin slices
1 English cucumber, 8 thin slices

Steps:

  • Prepare a medium charcoal or gas grill fire. Clean and oil the grill grates. Gently mix the lamb with the paprika, oregano, garlic, and 1 tsp salt. Shape it into four 1/2 inch thick patties.
  • On a large plate, lay out the slices of feta and sprinkle with the olive oil and 1 Tb of the dill.
  • In a small bowl, toss the onion with the vinegar, sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, and the remaining 1 Tb dill, and let sit at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Grill the burgers on one side until they have good grill marks, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook the other side until it has good grill marks, too, and the burgers are just light pink inside (make a nick with a paring knife), about 5 minutes for medium doneness.
  • Serve the burgers in the warmed pita with the feta, tomato, cucumber, and a heaping 1 tsp of pickled onions.

Goat Cheese-Stuffed Lamb Burgers with Caramelized Red Onions image

Lamb burgers are a great way to switch up burger night at home. Change is good, y'all! Lamb has more of an earthy, gamey flavor than beef, and it's completely delicious paired with creamy goat cheese and deeply caramelized onions. If your burger night needs a little relief from the same old same old, give these a go.

Categories     HarperCollins     Hamburger     Lamb     Goat Cheese     Cheese     Dinner     Onion     Beer     Bacon     Arugula

Yield Makes 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 19

Caramelized onions:
1 tablespoon butter
1 large red onion, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup dark beer
Lamb burgers:
1 1/2 pounds ground lamb
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
1/3 cup goat cheese
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 burger buns
4 tablespoons Spicy Herb Mayo
4 slices cooked bacon
1 cup baby arugula

Steps:

  • Make the onions:
  • In a 3-quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and salt, toss to combine, and cover. Cook for 20 minutes, stirring several times to ensure that the onion does not stick to the pan. Add the beer, stir, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. If the onion is deeply caramelized and the liquid has mostly evaporated, it's perfection. If not, cook for a few minutes more. Set aside.
  • Make the burgers:
  • In a large bowl, combine the lamb, garlic, smoked paprika, cayenne, and mint. Mix well. Set aside 4 tablespoons of the lamb mixture and divide the remaining lamb into four equal portions. Shape them into patties slightly larger than the width of the burger bun. Using your thumb, make a well in the center of each patty, going halfway through the lamb.
  • Divide the goat cheese into four portions and place them in the thumb divots. Flatten each tablespoon of reserved burger mixture into a disc and place on top of the goat cheese. Pinch the edges to encase the cheese in the lamb. Season both sides of each patty with salt and pepper.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat. Fry the burgers for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium doneness.
  • Place the burgers on the buns and top each with 1 tablespoon mayo, some caramelized onions, bacon, and 1/4 cup arugula.
