Greek Turkey Sliders

Introduction

These Mediterranean-style sliders by Chef Starr Montout of The Tastery, LLC are a flavorful, fresh take on healthy weeknight dining. Made with lean ground turkey and vibrant toppings like tzatziki, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and olives, they’re perfect for a light and satisfying meal.

Ingredients

For the Turkey Patties:

• 1 lb ground turkey
• ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• ¼ cup feta cheese, crumbled
• ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• ½ tsp ground cumin
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)

For the Toppings:

• 4 mini pita breads (or 2 large, halved)
• ½ cup tzatziki sauce
• ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• ¼ cup cucumber, diced
• ¼ cup kalamata olives, sliced
• ¼ cup feta cheese, crumbled
• Fresh dill or parsley for garnish

Instructions

1. Combine all turkey patty ingredients in a bowl and form into slider-sized patties (about 2 inches wide).
2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook patties for 3–4 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
3. Warm the pita bread in a dry skillet or toaster until soft.
4. Spread a generous layer of tzatziki on each pita, top with a turkey patty, and add cherry tomatoes, cucumber, olives, and extra feta.
