Mediterranean Lamb Burgers image

These burgers are juicy and full of flavor. Even people who don't really like lamb have enjoyed these burgers. You can double the recipe and freeze half of the patties in wax paper to eat at a later time. Fine to place on the grill frozen (just add to the cooking time).

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound ground lamb
½ pound ground beef
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (16 ounce) container Greek yogurt
½ lemon, zested
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
1 large sweet onion, cut into 1/2-inch slices
4 slices green tomato
4 ciabatta sandwich rolls, sliced horizontally
1 (8 ounce) package feta cheese, sliced
8 baby arugula leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • Mix the ground lamb, ground beef, mint, ginger, 1 teaspoon garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a large bowl until just combined. Divide evenly into four portions and shape in to large patties. Set aside. Mix Greek yogurt, lemon zest, 1 clove garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl; cover and refrigerate.
  • Cook the lamb and beef patties on the preheated grill until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, 3 to 4 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Place the slices of onion and green tomato on the grill. Cook until lightly charred, about 1 minute on each side.
  • Spread yogurt sauce over the sliced ciabatta rolls. Assemble each burger by placing the patty on the the roll, and dividing the feta cheese slices over the patties. Top with a slice of grilled tomato, grilled onion, and 2 leaves of arugula, followed by the top half of the roll.

I loved the idea of these lamb burgers, but they were a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less chili powder.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my burgers didn't turn out as well as I hoped. They were a little dry and overcooked.

I'm not a big fan of lamb, but I thought these burgers were pretty good. The tzatziki sauce was especially good.

The lamb burgers were a little dry, but the tzatziki sauce helped to add some moisture. Overall, they were still a good meal.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the burgers turned out perfectly. They were cooked evenly and had a nice crust on the outside. The tzatziki sauce was also delicious.
