Feta Suffed Chicken Burgers

A Greek-inspired weight watchers recipe. Salty feta cheese adds a kick to these poultry-based burgers. Other Greek ingredients add more great flavor.
















Ingredients
:

- 1 lb uncooked ground chicken breast
- 1 tbs fresh oregano (I just eyeballed sprinkling dried oregano)
- 1/4 tsp garlic powdered
- 7 tbsp feta cheese (I used reduced fat), crumbled
- ~1 to 2 tbs hummus
- 4 reduced-calorie hamburger rolls
- 1 cup lettuce
- 2/3 cup roasted red peppers, sliced
- Black olives, sliced (about 4 tsp)

Instructions:

Preheat grill or broiler.

In a medium bowl, combine chicken, oregano, garlic powder, hummus and feta; divide mixture into four balls and then press them gently into patties.

Grill or b roil patties until internal temperature of burgers reaches 165 degrees, about 7-8min per side.

Serve each burger on a bun spread with hummus and topped with lettuce, peppers, and olives.
