Recipe by Mary Drennen
We combine ground lamb with lean ground sirloin for a less fatty patty; you can also use all sirloin. Try our grilled asparagus spears in place of fries: They get deliciously charred in the pan.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
- 8 ounces lean ground lamb
- 8 ounces 90% lean ground sirloin
- Cooking spray
- 4 (1 1/2-ounce) whole-wheat hamburger buns
- 1/4 cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons reduced-fat feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 cup baby arugula
Instructions
- Combine first 9 ingredients in a bowl, stirring just until combined. Divide the lamb mixture into 4 equal portions; shape each portion into a 1/2-inch-thick patty.
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add patties to pan; grill 4 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Remove patties from pan. Add buns to pan, cut sides down; grill 1 minute or until toasted.
- Combine yogurt, cheese, mint, and juice in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Place patties on bottom halves of buns; top evenly with feta mixture, arugula, and top halves of buns.
