Feta-Stuffed Lamb Burgers with Minted Tzatziki

These juicy lamb patties hide a savory surprise of molten feta cheese in the center, ensuring every bite is rich and flavorful. Topped with a refreshing homemade cucumber-mint tzatziki, this recipe brings the vibrant taste of the Greek isles to your backyard grill.

Ingredients

1 lb ground lamb
4 oz block feta cheese, cut into 4 slabs
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
4 brioche buns, toasted
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup cucumber, grated and squeezed dry
1 tbsp fresh mint, chopped
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, chopped mint, lemon juice, and minced fresh garlic. Season with a pinch of salt and refrigerate until serving.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, gently combine the ground lamb with dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Do not overmix.

  3. 3

    Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions.

  4. 4

    Flatten each portion into a patty, place a slab of feta in the center, and fold the meat carefully around the cheese to seal it completely inside.

  5. 5

    Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.

  6. 6

    Cook the burgers for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the lamb is cooked through (160°F internal temperature) and the cheese is soft.

  7. 7

    Let the burgers rest for 5 minutes before assembling on toasted brioche buns with a generous dollop of the chilled minted tzatziki.
