This very easy option for a weeknight dinner. I use store-bought Tzatziki and Naan to keep things simple. The lamb is extremely juicy and tender and the spices pack it full of flavor.
In a bowl, gently combine the lamb with the spices and garlic. Be careful not to over-work the meat. Form into patties. Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the lamb for approximately 4 minutes per side for medium. Do NOT press the burgers down on the grill- you will lose the flavorful juices! Drain the feta and pat dry. Slice the feta and place on the burgers just before they are finished. (It's ok if it's crumbly, just try to keep them towards the center of the burger.) Remove the burgers from the grill and set aside to rest a few minutes. Put the pieces of naan on the grill to warm them- just about a minute. Remove, tear in half placing each on a plate and top with a burger and some red onion. Spoon tzatziki over the top and serve. These are served open-faced and you fold the naan around the burger.
