Equipment

  • Blackstone Griddle
  • Flat Top Grill/ Griddle

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground lamb or ground chicken
  • 6 ounces feta cheese
  • 3 cloves garlic grated or finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • kosher salt, pepper
  • 3 mini cucumbers sliced
  • 1/3 cup pickled red onions (plus 1 tablespoon of the brine)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • cooking oil of choice
  • 8 soft taco size flour tortillas
  • 3/4 cup tzatziki sauce

Instructions
 

  • Put the lamb or chicken, 2 ounces of the feta, garlic, oregano, paprika, dill, kosher salt, and pepper in a bowl. Combine and roll into 8 balls, I find it easiest to use my hands for this.
  • In another bowl add the remaining feta, cucumber, pickled red onions plus 1 tablespoon of the brine, olive oil, and just a little kosher salt, and pepper. Toss until combined and set aside.
  • Preheat griddle to medium. Add cooking oil of choice and place balls of lamb or chicken, spaced a few inches apart. Put a flour tortilla over each ball and use a burger press to smash as flat as possible, with a slight twist.
  • Cook 4 minutes and flip. Cook 2 more minutes.
  • Spoon tzatziki sauce down the center of each, top with the cucumber feta relish, fold, and enjoy!
