How to cook deliciously - Loaded Greek Burgers

1. Stage

Make the spread: Stir feta cheese, mayonnaise, lime juice, mint, and parsley together in a small bowl. Set aside until needed.

2. Stage

Make the burgers: Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

3. Stage

Cut bell pepper in half from top to bottom; remove stem, seeds, and ribs. Place pepper onto the prepared baking sheet with the cut sides facing down.

4. Stage

Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin has blackened and blistered, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer pepper halves to a paper bag to cool and steam, about 5 minutes.

5. Stage

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.

6. Stage

Peel and discard bell pepper skin. Dice flesh and place into a large bowl.

7. Stage

Add ground beef, spinach, feta, bread crumbs, onion, egg, garlic, mint, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper; mix gently with your hands until evenly combined. Form meat mixture into four 4 1/2-inch-diameter patties.

8. Stage

Cook on the preheated grill until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

9. Stage

Serve burgers on warm rolls with feta cheese spread, fresh tomatoes, and lettuce.
