SERVES 4

1 pound ground turkey
2/3 cup finely chopped onion
1/3 cup (about 2 ounces) crumbled feta cheese plus additional for topping
3 tbsps coarsely chopped pitted Kalamata olives (about 6) plus additional for topping
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil plus additional for brushing
1 small garlic clove, pressed
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon (generous) coarse kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon (generous) black pepper
4 crusty rolls, halved horizontally
Tomato Jam
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup (scant) finely chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
2 14-ounce cans diced tomatoes in juice
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush grill rack with oil.

Gently mix turkey, onion, 1/3 cup feta, 3 tablespoons chopped olives, 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil, garlic, rosemary, generous 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt, and generous 1/2 teaspoon pepper in medium bowl. Form into 4 patties, each about 1 inch thick. Brush with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Grill burgers until charred on both sides and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Grill cut side of rolls until toasted, about 2 minutes. Assemble burgers with Tomato Jam and additional feta and chopped olives.

For the Tomato Jam: Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic; cook until onion is soft and translucent, stirring often, about 4 minutes. Add diced tomatoes with juice, sugar, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Cook over medium-high heat until almost all liquid evaporates and mixture is reduced to about 2 1/4 cups, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Cool.
