Olives, roasted peppers and feta add great flavor to these burgers, and these lean patties give burger night a refreshing change of pace (and place). Ground chicken gets a welcome moisture lift with the addition of feta cheese, but be sure to keep an eye on the burgers so they aren't overcooked and dry. To amp up the Greek flavor, add a tablespoon of chopped capers to the olives and roasted red peppers before serving. They are the perfect Mediterranean stand-in for a classic dill pickle garnish. Serve with roasted rosemary potatoes, and complete your meal with our light Greek Salad.*
