For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of feta cheese or a few Kalamata olives to your gyro burgers. If you don't have a grill, you can cook the patties in a skillet on the stovetop. Make the cucumber sauce a day ahead for even better flavor.

01 Step
Recipe View 10 mins Prepare the Cucumber-Yogurt Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together one container of plain yogurt with the Ranch dressing mix. Divide this mixture in half, placing half into a separate bowl. To one of the bowls, add the remaining container of plain yogurt and the chopped cucumber. Mix thoroughly. Cover both bowls and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View 10 mins Prepare the Gyro Burgers: Gently combine the ground beef with the diced onion and the reserved yogurt-ranch mixture. Form the mixture into 6 equal-sized hamburger patties. Be careful not to overwork the meat to ensure a tender burger. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
