Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lbs ground turkey 93/7
  • 3 cups baby spinach chopped and wilted
  • 2/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 tbsp Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup finely diced red onion
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill chopped
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for cooking
  • 4 brioche burger buns
  • 1/2 cup tzatziki sauce

Method
 

  1. Wilt chopped spinach in a hot dry pan 1 minute. Cool and squeeze dry.
  2. Mix turkey, spinach, feta, panko, yogurt, egg, garlic, onion, dill, oregano, salt, and pepper just until combined.
  3. Form 4 patties 3/4 inch thick. Press a thumb dimple in the center of each.
  4. Heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high. Cook 4 to 5 minutes per side until 165F inside.
  5. Toast buns. Spread tzatziki, layer arugula, tomato, patty, and red onion. Serve immediately.

Notes

Always squeeze the wilted spinach dry. Use 93/7 ground turkey for juicy patties. Press a thumb dimple in the center so they cook flat.
