Greek Chicken Burgers with Spinach and Feta
These Greek-inspired chicken burgers are packed with flavor and nutrition. The combination of spinach and feta cheese not only enhances the taste but also adds a delightful texture that you won’t be able to resist.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Buns for serving
- Your choice of toppings (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, tzatziki, etc.)
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, chopped spinach, feta cheese, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined, but be careful not to overwork the meat.
- Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Aim for about 4-6 patties, depending on your preferred size.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken patties and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the burgers are golden brown.
- If you’re using buns, during the last minute of cooking, you can toast the buns on the skillet face down until golden.
- Serve the Greek chicken burgers on the toasted buns with your favorite toppings. A dollop of tzatziki sauce and fresh veggies work wonderfully!
