Ingredients
Cucumber Slaw- 2 Persian cucumbers, shaved into ribbons with a vegetable peeler
- 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped dill
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1 pound ground American Lamb
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 5 slider buns, split and toasted
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, combine the cucumbers, red onion, parsley, dill, salt, olive oil, and lemon juice and toss to combine to make slaw. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, salt, pepper, cumin, coriander, red pepper flakes, and feta. Mix until well combined. Shape into 5 burgers.
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the lamb burgers and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, without moving, until a crust forms.
- Flip the burgers over and continue to cook for 4 to 6 minutes until desired degree of doneness: 145˚F for medium-rare, 160˚F for medium or 170˚F for well.
- Serve the lamb burgers on the slider buns and top with the slaw.
