["In a large mixing bowl, toss together the first five ingredients (preserved lemon through olive oil). Let sit for at least 5 minutes.
2
In the meantime, in a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, Aleppo pepper and mint.", "Preheat your grill - you'll want it at about 475u00b0 F.
3
To the lemon-onion mixture In the large bowl, add the ground chicken and yogurt blend. Use your hands or a wooden spoon to gently combine everything until the lemons and onions and yogurt sauce are evenly distributed throughout. Shape into patties. You'll get 6-7.", "Oil the grates on your hot grill (carefully) and grill the burgers, flipping once, until a thermometer inserted into the centers just reads 165u00b0 F.

Serve on lightly toasted buns (I like potato) with whatever fixings you prefer. I like lettuce, tomato and some arugula-mint mayo. Avocado would probably be nice too!"]
