Grilled Mediterranean Lamb Burgers
Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground lamb
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (16 ounce) container Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 lemon, zested
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 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
Instructions
1
Get your grill ready for a medium-high heat setting, and lightly brush the grates with oil to prevent sticking
2
. Prepare the meat mixture: Combine ground lamb, ground beef, fresh mint leaves, grated ginger, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until the ingredients are just mixed together. Divide this mixture evenly into four portions and shape each portion into a large patty, setting it aside for now
3
. Create the sauce base: Mix together Greek yogurt, lemon zest, minced garlic, and salt in a bowl; cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use
4
. Cook the burgers: Place the patties on the preheated grill and cook until they reach your desired level of doneness, about 3 to 4 minutes per side for a well-done burger. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature, aiming for 160 degrees F (70 degrees C)
5
. Meanwhile, prepare the toppings: Place slices of onion and green tomato on the grill and cook until they're lightly charred, about 1 minute per side
6
. Assemble the burgers: Spread a layer of yogurt sauce on each ciabatta roll slice, followed by placing each burger patty on top. Add a slice of feta cheese over the patty, then add a slice of grilled tomato, some caramelized onions, and 2 leaves of arugula on top. Finish with the top half of the roll
