  • 1-1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried oregano
  • 1-1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cups torn Romaine lettuce leaves
  • 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 small red onion, peeled and sliced
  • 1 medium cucumber, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Sea salt and freshly ground pepper

Directions

  1. Prepare the oven broiler.
  2. Place the lamb, oregano and a few generous pinches of salt and pepper into a bowl. Mix to combine and then shape into 4 patties.
  3. Place the lamb burgers under the broiler for 4 minutes then flip and cook on the other side for an additional 4 minutes.
  4. In the meantime, place the lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper into a large bowl; whisk to combine. Slowly pour in the oil, whisking vigorously until thoroughly blended, then add the lettuce, tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, and cucumber and toss to coat.
