Recipe by: Josh Miller
-
Ingredients:
- 2 lb. ground lamb
- 2 garlic cloves, grated
- 2 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 tsp. cumin
- 2 tsp. smoked paprika
- 2 tsp. dried oregano
- 1 tsp. ground black pepper
- 1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
- 1/2 cup whole milk Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup grated peeled cucumber, squeezed dry
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh mint
- 1/4 tsp. salt (optional)
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 tomato slices
- 2 cups arugula
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 pepperoncini peppers
- 4 cubes feta cheese
- 4 kalamata olives
- Combine the ground lamb, garlic, salt, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, cinnamon, pepper, and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl. Gently mix the lamb mixture to thoroughly combine with the seasoning. Divide the mixture into 4 even portions, about 8 ounces each. Pat each portion into a ball (but not too tightly), then press into 1-inch thick patties. To cook on the stovetop:
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and swirl to coat the pan. Place the patties in the skillet and let cook for 3 to 4 minutes until golden and crusty. Flip and cook the other side until the internal temperature of the burger reaches 135˚ (for medium doneness), about 3 more minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes.
- Preheat the grill over medium-high heat, 400 to 425˚. Oil the grill grates. Place the patties on the grill over direct heat. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, covered, or until the internal temperature reads 135˚ (for medium doneness. Let rest for 5 minutes.
- While burgers rest, stir together the yogurt, cucumber, feta, and mint in a small bowl. Taste, and season with salt if you like.
- spoon a tablespoon of the feta sauce on each bottom bun. Add arugula, sliced tomato, 1 lamb patty, more feta sauce, red onion, and then the bun top. If you like, spear pepperoncini peppers, cubes of feta, and kalamata olives on 5-inch wooden skewers and add one to each assembled burger.

Dessert Recipe: Hash Brown Omelet
Servings: 1
Food Network ~ Step by Step
We took the classic diner breakfast of an omelet and hash browns and combined them into a no-fuss dish that's both hearty and satisfying. Frozen shredded hash browns are browned in a skillet until golden and crisp, then cooked directly with the eggs for crusty potatoes in every bite. We also loaded the inside of the omelet with sautéed bell peppers, Canadian bacon, tomatoes and melty cheese and topped the whole thing with avocado slices for the ultimate diner-style meal you can easily make at home.
Recipe by: Amanda Neal
-
Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup finely diced green bell peppers
- 1/4 cup finely diced Canadian bacon
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups frozen shredded hash browns (about 5 ounces; do not thaw)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 slices American cheese
- 1/4 cup finely diced tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon thinly sliced scallions
- 1/2 ripe avocado, thinly sliced
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers, Canadian bacon, a pinch of salt and a couple grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are just tender and the bacon begins to brown in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the veggies to a small bowl, then return the skillet to the heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to the same skillet, swirling the pan to evenly coat. Add the shredded hash browns in a single layer, pressing them down with the back of a heatproof spatula. Cook, undisturbed, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, about 8 minutes. Flip the hash browns over, add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil around the edge of the skillet, then continue to cook until the other side is golden, 4 to 5 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and a couple grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until thoroughly combined.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low. Break apart the hash browns slightly, then pour the eggs over top in an even layer. Cook until the eggs are just set, about 1 minute. Lay the cheese on one side of the omelet, then sprinkle over the reserved peppers and bacon, the tomatoes and scallions. Continue to cook until the cheese is just melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Fold the omelet in half over the filling like a book, then slide onto a plate. Top with the sliced avocado and serve immediately.
