Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

Olive and Feta Topping:

  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta

  • 1/3 cup minced green olives

  • 1/3 cup minced black olives

  • 1 lemon, juiced

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Turkey Burgers:

  • 1 pound ground turkey

  • 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs

  • 1/3 cup chopped onion

  • 1 large egg

  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta

  • 1 lemon, zested

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

  • 1/2 tablespoon dried oregano

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika

Directions

  1. Mix together feta, green olives, black olives, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

  2. Combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, egg, feta, lemon zest, dill, oregano, garlic, and smoked paprika in a bowl. Shape mixture into four 1/4-pound patties.

  3. Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  4. Cook the turkey burgers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

These buttermilk pancakes are passed down from my grandmother, who was fully Scandinavian. They are light and fluffy, and great with berry syrups. I have made these for years as a special treat, and I hope you enjoy them as much as my family has.

This recipe is from my grandmother: the secret is to roll the dough thin for a light, crisp cookie. Polish bow tie cookies.
