Feta Burgers with Roasted Red Pepper Aioli
Adapted from Grill-It!
Printable Recipe
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs ground beef (85/15)
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 Tablespoon crumbled feta cheese
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4-6 hamburger buns
2-4 oz crumbed feta cheese
leafy lettuce (optional)
tomato slices/cucumber slices (optional)
For the aioli -
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 roasted red pepper, roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, quartered
1 teaspoon olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
In a large bowl, add the ground beef, onion powder, garlic powder, 1 tablespoon feta cheese and pepper. Using your hands, mix everything together. Form into patties (you can decide how big and how many you make) and place on a platter. Cover and set aside. (you can make the patties in advance, just cover and place in refrigerator until about 20 minutes before you are ready to grill them.)
Add all the ingredients for the aioli into a food processor; pulse until everything is chopped and well mixed. Place in small bowl, cover and put in refrigerator until ready to use.
Preheat grill to 375-400 degrees F. Clean and oil grill grates. Place the burger patties over direct heat and grill 5-10 minutes per side (depending on desired doneness). In the last 5 minutes of grilling, top each patty with the remaining goat cheese. Remove from gill and allow to rest 3-5 minutes. Top each bun with lettuce/tomato/cucumber, place the patty on top and finally top it all with the red pepper aioli. Enjoy!!

Awesome sounding burger - I like every ingredient you used.
The Walking Dead? I think I saw some of them up the street at the old folks home. You should call this recipe "A quirk of feta."
You're singing my song, Jenn! Roasted red peppers, Feta cheese, cucumber...all delicious. I've pinned this. YUM.
The burgers sound delicious and your photos are excellent! I'll leave the walking dead to you. I can hang with the vampire shows, but not the zombies. For whatever reason, they just freak me out!
Loving those burgers! The salty feta with the creamy aioli totally make me drool.
The last episode was so intense! The Governor is CRAZY! For some reason I thought that was the last episode so I am super happy we have two more!
Holy smokes, that burger ROCKS. The feta and aioli really kick it up.
Beef! Feta! Burgers!! you are calling my name!! delicious - perfection!

Jenn, that sounds great - especially the aioli! I'm not familiar with that TV show, but what you said is exactly why I like to wait till a show comes out on Netflix then I can have marathons and not have to wait for seasons.
