Finished product! (I promise a burger is under the tzatizki

When you get a pound of lamb for 2 dollars on clearance, you gotta come up with a new recipe and boy I sure did!

This recipe is of course quick and easy and also fun to make. Not to mention delicious!


PREP TIME: 10-15 minutes

MARINATE TIME: at least a few hours, maybe overnight

COOK TIME: 10 minutes


LAMB BURGERS

INGREDIENTS: I didn't give measurements as I rarely use them. I eyeball and modify passed on what spices I like and don't like

  • lamb
  • shallots
  • parsley
  • mint
  • cilantro
  • rosemary
  • coriander
  • oregano
  • minced garlic or garlic powder
  • 1 T of dijon mustard
  • feta cheese
  • cumin
  • 1 t of dill


    INSTRUCTIONS:
    • In a bowl, add all ingredients and mix thoroughly 
    • form 4 patties 
    • let it set at least an hour, up to overnight to allow flavors to mix
    • Grill on stove or a grill

      TZATZIKI
      While the burgers are settling or cooking, mix together:
      • extra shallots
      • lime juice to taste
      • garlic
      • feta cheese
      • a bit of parsley and mint

    • PESTO TOPPING
      While burgers are settling or cooking, mix together in the Food processor:
      • leftover mint and parsley
      • 1 t of red pepper flakes
      • olive oil
      • salt and pepper
      • feta cheese

    • All ready to serve!

      I served mine over a bed of lettuce, topping with pesto, tzatziki, parsley , feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes and a bit of olive oil! 

      As always, feel free to add and take away what you can find and what you have. Sadly I couldn't find any mint so it was left out this time!
