Greek Burger

It's been decided....everything is better with tzatziki sauce! I've made it for a Greek festival meal, used it on hot dogs for a Greek style dog, and last week....topped a delicious burger with it. If you've never tried it, it's the lightest, most refreshing thing you will ever have....and to top it off, it's so simple to make!

For the Burger:

1lb ground chicken

Juice of one lemon

1/2tsp oregano

1/2tsp basil

2 green onions, chopped

Garlic clove, grated

2Tbsp sliced Kalamata olives

1tsp brine from the olives

1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Black pepper

Red onion

Pepperocinis

Hamburger buns

For the Tzatziki:

1 cucumber, peeled, seeded and grated

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

Salt

Juice of one lemon

2 garlic cloves, grated

2Tbsp fresh mint, chopped

1. In a bowl mix mix together all burger ingredients, up to pepper. Mix, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, peel, seed and grate cucumber. Place on paper towel and squeeze out excess water. Place in medium bowl and combine with remaining tzatziki ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

3. Form burger mixture into four patties, grill over medium heat about 7 minutes on each side.

4. To assemble, place burger on bun, top with pepperocini, red onion and tzatziki.
