Equipment

  • Panini Press / Indoor Grill or outdoor grill.

Ingredients

Burgers:

  • 1 Cup Fresh Spinach Chopped
  • ¼ Cup Fresh Dill Chopped
  • 1 Green Onion Sliced
  • 1 lb Ground Chicken
  • ½ Lemon Zest Of
  • Cup Shredded Feta Cheese
  • Cup Panko Crumbs Gluten-Free if needed (⅓ cup almond flour for keto)
  • 3 cloves Garlic pressed or finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
  • Olive Oil or Pan Spray

Assembly:

  • 4 Burger Buns
  • Lemon Mayo
  • Red Onion
  • Lettuce

Instructions

Burgers:

  • Measure spinach, dill, and green onion into the food processor.
  • Blitz until finely chopped, add to mixing bowl, along with remaining ingredients.
  • Mix gently until thoroughly combined.
  • Divide mixture into 4 equal mounds, shape into burgers.
  • Heat nonstick pan, spray or coat with a small amount of olive oil.
  • Cook over medium heat for a few minutes, until it looks to be cooked halfway through. Gently flip – I like to use 2 large spatulas – and cook for a few more minutes, until cooked all the way through - registering 165 F on an instant read thermometer - and lightly browned.

Assembly:

  • Spread both halves of each bun with a bit of lemon mayo / lemon aioli.
  • Arrange a few lettuce leaves on the bottom half of each bun, top each with a cooked burger.
  • Top with onion slices and the top bun, serve immediately.
