This lamb burger recipe was the best one I made when I bought a selection of lamb cuts from a CSA and got several one-pound packages of ground lamb. Top them with Dijon mayonnaise, tomato slices, and baby greens.
Preparation Details
Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 30 mins
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground lamb
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 4-inch sprig rosemary, chopped
- 4 sprigs thyme, chopped
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
- 4 thick slices tomato
- 1 cup baby mixed salad greens
Steps
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Mix ground lamb, garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl until thoroughly combined.
- Shape mixture into 4 patties.
- Place patties on the preheated grill and cook until firm and slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Alternately, you can cook the patties to your desired degree of doneness. Rest patties while assembling toppings.
- Mix mayonnaise and mustard together in a small bowl.
- Spread 1 tablespoon on bottom of each hamburger bun; top each one with a lamb patty, tomato slice, and some greens. Sandwich with top bun to serve.
