Greek Chicken Burgers With Feta

Submitted by Annacia

"These Greek-style chicken burgers pleasantly surprise with a feta cheese filling."

 

• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 9
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 lb ground chicken
• 1⁄2 cup dry breadcrumbs
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
• 3 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano
• salt and pepper
• 2 ounces crumbled feta cheese

directions

1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
2. Mix the chicken, bread crumbs, egg, lemon juice, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a bowl; form the mixture into 4 thin patties.
3. Divide the feta cheese between the 4 patties; place a portion of the feta cheese atop each patty and fold the chicken mixture around the cheese so that the cheese is in the center and seal well.
4. Cook on the preheated grill until no longer pink on the inside and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).

Made for the ZWT #9 and it's a keeper! Delicious and moist, we will have these again. Thanks for posting.

These burgers are really good! However, I did not stuff these, and instead just put the feta on top of the patties. I also topped these with some sliced black olives and tomatoes. I loved the addition of sun-dried tomatoes to the ground chicken- I will double the amount next time.
