Chickpea Burgers & Tahini Sauce

• Chickpea burgers
• 1 19-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed
• 4 scallions, trimmed and sliced
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 6 1/2-inch whole-wheat pitas, halved and warmed, if desired
• Tahini sauce
• 1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt
• 2 tablespoons tahini (see Ingredient note)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

1. 1. To prepare burgers: Place chickpeas, scallions, egg, flour, oregano, cumin and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Pulse, stopping once or twice to scrape down the sides, until a coarse mixture forms that holds together when pressed. (The mixture will be moist.) Form into 4 patties.
2. 2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook until golden and beginning to crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Carefully flip and cook until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes more.
3. 3. To prepare sauce & serve: Meanwhile, combine yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, parsley and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Divide the patties among the pitas and serve with the sauce.
