2 tsp grated lemon zest
1 tbsp olive oil
1 c Greek yogurt

Ingredients for the burgers:

1 tsp salt
1 medium zucchini, coarsely chopped
2 tbsp chopped cilantro
1 large egg, lightly beaten
½ tsp freshly ground black pepper and about 3-4 tbsp olive oil for searing
1 tsp ground cumin
½ medium red bell pepper, finely diced
1 ear of fresh corn husks and silk removed and kernels cut from the cob
1 tsp ground coriander
½ c panko bread crumbs
1 pound ground chicken
3 green onions, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced

Ingredients for the Tomato-Cucumber Relish:

2 green onions, finely sliced
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 clove of garlic, minced
zest of 1 lemon
⅓ medium seedless English cucumber, finely diced
¼ c finely chopped fresh cilantro
A pinch of salt
1 pt. cherry or grape tomatoes, quartered

Directions:

In a large mixing bowl, add all the ingredients for the Greek yogurt sauce. Stir everything until well incorporated. Put the bowl in the fridge to chill while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.

Prepare the oven and preheat it to 218 degrees C or 425 degrees F.

Set aside the oil and add all the ingredients for the burger into a mixing bowl. Use your clean hands to mix everything until well incorporated. Make small patties out of the meat mixture.

Place a large frying pan on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Add oil and allow it to become hot.

Add the burger patties into the hot skillet, then sear each side for 2 minutes or until they turn golden brown. Transfer them onto a baking sheet.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and cook the burger patties for 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven.

In a mixing bowl, add all the ingredients for the tomato-cucumber relish. Stir to combine.

Serve the burgers with the relish on the side. Enjoy!
