A delightful twist on classic burgers, featuring Mediterranean flavors and grilled vegetables.
Combine the ground beef, crumbled feta, oregano, salt, pepper, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the patties tough.
Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each.
The indentation helps the patties cook evenly and prevents them from puffing up.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.
Ensure the grill is clean to prevent sticking.
Slice the red onion, zucchini, and bell pepper into rings or strips and brush with olive oil.
Cut the vegetables evenly to ensure they cook at the same rate.
Place the patties and vegetables on the grill. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side and the vegetables until tender and slightly charred.
Avoid pressing down on the patties to retain their juices.
Toast the burger buns on the grill for about 1 minute, cut side down.
Keep an eye on the buns to prevent burning.
Assemble the burgers by placing a patty on the bottom bun, topping with grilled vegetables, and covering with the top bun.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
