GREEK BURGER WITH ARUGULA AND FETA



Greek Burger With Arugula and Feta image

This is a delicious and healthy meal in one. Using the pita in the meat makes it so moist! Ground turkey could be used instead of lam, and any kind of lettuce can be substituted for the arugula. This recipe came from Self magazine, and it is one of our favorites!

Categories     Main Course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound ground meat (your choice: beef, pork, lamb, chicken or turkey)
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons pine nuts
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil (drained and chopped)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 1/2 tablespoons Homemade Greek Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups arugula leaves
1/2 cup Homemade Tzatziki Sauce
Sliced tomatoes
Sliced red onions
Extra crumbled feta cheese
4 hamburger buns (lightly toasted)
homemade hamburger buns ((click link for recipe))

Steps:

  • Combine the meat, red onion, parsley, pine nuts, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, feta cheese, salt and Greek seasoning in a mixing bowl. Work with your fingers until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Form into 4 patties. Grill or pan fry over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or according to desired doneness (is using poultry or pork, make sure it's thoroughly cooked through). If you're cooking them on the stovetop, I like to use the Lodge Cast Iron Grill Pan to get those pretty grill marks.
  • Arrange some arugula leaves on the bottoms of each hamburger bun and place the patties on top. Top with tomatoes, red onions, tzatziki sauce, and crumbled feta cheese. Place the top bun on each burger and serve immediately with extra tzatziki sauce.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 whole-wheat pitas (6 1/2 inches each)
1/4 cup skim milk
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
4 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3/4 pound lean ground lamb
2 teaspoon olive oil
3 cups arugula
1 medium tomato, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 red onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1/3 cup crumbled feta
Dressing
2/3 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
2 teaspoon chopped garlic
2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 cup peeled, seeded and finely diced cucumber

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Cut 1/4 off each pita (a half-moon shape from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock). Chop half-moons, transfer to a bowl and sprinkle with milk. Let soak 5 minutes. Drain and squeeze out excess milk. Purée soaked bread, onion, garlic, herbs and lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Transfer purée to a bowl. Add lamb, season with salt and pepper and combine. Form into 4 patties. Wrap pitas in foil and heat until warm, about 8 minutes. (Or place pitas between sheets of paper towel and microwave until warm, about 30 seconds.) Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Cook burgers to medium, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Whisk yogurt, mint, garlic, mustard and honey in a bowl. Stir in cucumber and season with salt and pepper. Open each pita, stuff with arugula and drizzle with some of the dressing. Add burger, tomato and red onion to pita. Sprinkle with feta. Serve leftover dressing on the side.

GREEK FETA BURGERS

A nice alternative to ground lamb, which can be very expensive. Serve with cucumber sauce, Recipe #492963 I found this recipe online and haven't had a chance to try it yet.

Provided by pammyowl

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces ground beef
3 tablespoons crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese (I use the already seasoned garlic and herb version)
1 1/2 teaspoons snipped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 garlic clove, minced
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 whole wheat hamburger bun, split and toasted, unless you want both top and bottom bun
1/2 cup fresh spinach leaves
2 slices tomatoes
thin slivers red onion (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare Recipe #492963 set aside. In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, cheese, parsley, garlic, and pepper. Shape mixture into two 1/2-inch-thick patties.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, cook patties over medium-high heat for 4 minutes per side or until desired doneness. I like mine medium to medium rare. Your choice, of course. Line cut sides of bun halves with spinach. Top with burgers, tomato slices, and sauce. If desired, garnish with red onion.
