Cook the Burgers:
- Heat a dry 12-inch cast iron or other heavy skillet over medium high heat until very hot, about 2 minutes.
- Add 2 Tablespoons oil, coating the surface with oil.
- Add the balls spacing them out; then use a solid flat spatula or the back of a wooden spoon to smash them until they are ½ inch thick.
- Cook without moving until a crust forms on the burger bottoms, and they easily release from the pan, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Flip using a spatula; cook until browned on the second side and cook to 165 degrees F, about 3 to 4 minutes more.
Serve the Burgers:
- Squeeze some lemon juice over them; Serve the burgers with the pickled salad and feta cheese, plain yogurt, mini grain Naan bread, and cut seedless tomatoes; garnish with minced chives.
