Greek Burgers

Curly Cukes and Radish Salad
Clock

Ingredients

  • 1½ lb ground beef sirloin
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tbsp snipped fresh oregano or 1 tsp dried oregano, crushed
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1½ cups thickly sliced button or cremini mushrooms
  • 1 to 2 small red onions, sliced
  • 1 red sweet pepper, seeded, and cut into strips
  • ⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 4 kaiser rolls, split and toasted

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl gently mix beef, Worcestershire, half of the oregano, the salt, and black pepper. Shape into four ½-inch-thick patties.
  2. In a large cast-iron skillet heat 1 Tbsp of the oil over medium-high. Add mushrooms, onions, and sweet pepper. Cook and stir 4 to 5 minutes or until crisp-tender.
  3. Remove skillet from heat; stir in the remaining oregano. Transfer to a medium bowl; cover to keep warm.
  4. Return skillet to stovetop; add the remaining 1 Tbsp oil. Heat over medium-high until oil is very hot. Add beef patties; cook 12 to 15 minutes or until done (160°F), turning once. (Reduce heat if burgers brown too quickly.) Serve with vegetables and feta on toasted buns.

Side Dish Ingredients

  • 10 radishes
  • 2 medium seedless cucumbers
  • 1 fresh jalapeño chile pepper, seeded and sliced into rings
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh basil
  • ½ tsp sugar
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp white wine vinegar

Side Dish Instructions

  1. Set aside one radish for garnish. Thinly slice five of the radishes. Cut remaining four radishes into halves or quarters.
  2. Using a vegetable peeler, cut thin, ribbonlike lengthwise slices from cucumbers, discarding first slice. You should have about 2 cups.
  3. In a bowl combine radish slices, halves, and quarters; cucumber; jalapeño; basil, sugar; and salt. Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Toss gently. Garnish with reserved whole radish.
