Ingredients

• 1 egg
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• ½ cup chopped green onions
• 2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs

• 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
• 1 ¼ pounds ground lamb
• 1 teaspoon dry sherry
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Mix the lamb, egg, oregano, sherry, vinegar, red pepper flakes, garlic, green onions, mint, cilantro, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper together in a mixing bowl with your hands until evenly blended. Form into five patties.

Step 3

Cook on the preheated grill until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Serve on buns.
