Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your grill or a large skillet to medium-high heat. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, crumbled feta cheese, finely chopped red onion, chopped fresh parsley, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Gently mix the ingredients with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the burgers tough. Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties.

  3. 3

    Lightly brush the patties with olive oil. Grill or pan-fry the burgers for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) is reached.

  4. 4

    While the burgers are cooking, prepare the cucumber yogurt sauce. In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, lemon juice, and fresh dill. Stir until well mixed. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.

  5. 5

    Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a pan. Serve the Greek turkey burgers on the toasted buns, topped with a generous spoonful of the cucumber yogurt sauce.
