  • heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. cook and stir the onions in the oil until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • gently knead together the softened onions, lamb, egg, bread crumbs, garlic, salt, and pepper. divide the mixture into 6 parts and roll into balls, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • mix together the goat cheese, extra-virgin olive oil, basil, and oregano until well combined; cover and chill for 5 minutes.
  • preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
  • working with one portion of meat at a time, make an indentation in the center of the ball with your thumb. fill the indentation with a heaping tablespoon of the goat cheese mixture. gently pull and form the meat patty around the cheese filling, making a burger-shaped patty. repeat with each ball of the lamb mixture.
  • grill the patties on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and well done, about 8 minutes per side.
