Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped pickled pepperoncini (2 to 3 peppers), plus 3 tablespoons brine
1 pint assorted grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 scallions, chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/4 pounds ground turkey
1 medium zucchini (half grated, half cut into matchsticks)
1/2 cup finely crumbled feta cheese
1 teaspoon dried oregano
4 pitas, warmed

Steps:

  • Combine the mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons pepperoncini brine in a small bowl. Toss the tomatoes with the chopped pepperoncini, the remaining 1 tablespoon brine, 2 tablespoons olive oil, half of the scallions and half of the mint in a medium bowl. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Refrigerate the mayonnaise and the tomato salad while you make the burgers.
  • Combine the turkey, grated zucchini, feta, oregano, the remaining scallions and mint, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl and mix well with your hands. Form into 4 oblong patties, about 4 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook until browned and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Cut off a piece of each pita to open. Serve the burgers and zucchini sticks in the pitas and drizzle with the mayonnaise sauce. Serve with the tomato salad.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my burgers didn't turn out very well. They were dry and crumbly.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The tomato salad was a bit too acidic for me. I would reduce the amount of lemon juice next time.

I love that this recipe uses ground turkey instead of beef. It's a healthier option that still tastes great.
