Summer is here!

Time to graduate from oh-so-common beef burgers and embrace the complex flavors of lamb patties.

Introducing, our new and improved summer staple.

Ingredients:

• 6 slider buns or mini brioche buns
• 1 pound ground lamb
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper
• 6 slices baby swiss cheese
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Sriracha
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• 2 cups loosely packed rainbow mix microgreens (or use any sprouts/greens of your choice)
• 6 slices ripe tomato
• Red onion rings

Direction:

• Pre-heat the grill and lightly oil the grate
• In a large glass bowl, mix ground lamb, oregano, cumin, coriander, garlic powder, salt and pepper until combined. Divide ground lamb into 6 even portions, shape each portion into a medium sized patty. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, mix mayonnaise, Sriracha and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Cover and store in refrigerator.
• Cook patties on the hot grill to your desired doneness, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Place Swiss cheese on each patty, cook a little longer until cheese starts to melt. Transfer patties to plate.
• Spread Sriracha mayo on sliced slider buns. Place microgreens/vegetable on the patty, top with lamb patty, tomato slice and lastly red onion rings. Cover with the top of the bun. Serve immediately.
