Greek Turkey Burgers with Feta

These Greek Turkey Burgers with feta cheese, olive and herbs are such a delicious and easy juicy turkey burger recipe to make to pair with hummus, tzatziki and your favorite Mediterranean sides.

I am obsessed with turkey burgers here. I make them almost every single week and these Greek turkey burgers are a personal favorite. They’re so easy to prep for dinner and you only need 15 minutes to both prep and cook them.

You can pair these burgers with your favorite greek-bowl sides and mix-in’s and condiments. Serve it on a bun, lettuce wrap, with rice, veggies, anything you’d like. And they’re great for kids too. I don’t know what it is about kids and the olive obsession. But my kids love anything with olives or cheese for that matter.

When you are craving a burger and also want something lighter, these turkey burgers are *it*. They’re healthy, light and insanely flavorful and juicy. And I love anything Greek-inspired. Because that means hummus, pita and feta cheese are usually involved.

I cannot wait to hear what you think of these Greek turkey burgers – I hope you love them as much as we do!

What ingredients you need to make these Greek-inspired turkey burgers:

• Ground turkey – if you don’t love turkey, try ground chicken or lamb
• Garlic powder, onion powder and oregano – I use these 3 spices but you can add more if you prefer too
• Feta cheese crumbles – if you don’t love feta cheese, use goat cheese
• Kalamata olives – I love adding these in for flavor and a little saltiness but if don’t love olives, omit. You can also do sun-dried tomatoes or roasted red peppers too
• For serving: rice, cucumber tomato salad, hummus, tzatziki, pita, anything you’d like

How to make Greek turkey burgers:

1. Add turkey, spices, feta and olives to bowl and mix together (I use meat handling gloves)
2. Form into 4 equal patties with your hand 
3. Warm a large skillet with medium high heat
4. Lower heat to medium and grease with a drizzle of oil or spray then add each burger to skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until meat thermometer reaches 165 degrees F
5. Remove from heat and enjoy with desired sides

FAQs and tips on making juicy turkey burgers with feta cheese:

1. Can you grill the turkey burgers instead of using skillet? Totally! An outdoor grill or even indoor countertop grill can work. Cook until burger reaches 165 degrees F.
2. I don’t love turkey, what else can I use? Ground chicken or lamb both work really well. I personally love lamb for this and turkey is also a go-to on a weekly basis.
3. What do you serve these with? Usually a tomato, cucumber and feta cheese salad, rice, quinoa, over a salad, with sweet potato fries, anything you’d like.
4. Can I add in some veggies to the burgers? Chopped spinach is a great addition. I love adding that in or some chopped zucchini too.
