Greek-Style Chicken Burgers
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min. Grill: 10 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.
The original recipe for these burgers called for lamb or beef, but I decided to try ground chicken to decrease the fat. The sauce easily doubles as a flavorful dip for veggies and pita chips. —Judy Puskas, Wallaceburg, Ontario
