Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt
2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds ground beef, preferably chuck
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Vegetable oil, for the grill
4 whole-wheat seeded buns, split
Red-leaf lettuce leaves, for topping
2 plum tomatoes, sliced
Alfalfa sprouts, for topping
1 avocado, halved, pitted and sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Make the dressing: Puree the yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, chives, basil, and salt and pepper to taste in a blender. Transfer to a small bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Make the burgers: Form the beef into four 6-ounce patties, about 3/4 inch thick; press the center of each patty with your thumb to make a 1/2-inch-deep indentation. Season the patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Lightly brush the grill grates with vegetable oil, then grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until marked and slightly firm, about 3 more minutes for medium doneness. Remove the patties to a plate and let rest 5 minutes. Grill the buns, cut side down, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
  • Top the bun bottoms with the lettuce, tomatoes, burger patties, alfalfa sprouts and avocado. Drizzle with the dressing, then cover with the bun tops.
