Equipment
- 1 large mixing bowl
- 1 Skillet or Grill Pan
- 1 Spatula
- 1 plate
- 1 Meat thermometer optional
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
- 1/4 cup red onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, feta cheese, parsley, red onion, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Mix the ingredients until well combined but do not overmix.

- Heat olive oil in a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the patties to the skillet or grill pan and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the burgers reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest on a plate for 5 minutes.
- Serve the turkey feta burgers on buns with your choice of toppings.
Notes
When forming the patties, make a small indentation in the center of each burger to prevent them from puffing up while cooking. For added flavor, consider adding a squeeze of lemon juice to the mixture. If you prefer grilling, these burgers can also be cooked on an outdoor grill. Adding a bit of Greek yogurt or tzatziki sauce as a topping can enhance the Mediterranean flavors of the dish.
