In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin powder, coriander powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Divide the mixture into eight equal portions and shape each portion into small skewers or patties of about 1 inch in thickness.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the skewers and cook for 7-8 minutes on each side until they are cooked through and browned on the outside.
Meanwhile, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing the low-fat Greek yogurt with lemon juice and fresh dill in a small bowl. Stir until combined and set aside.
Warm the whole wheat wraps in a dry pan or microwave for a few seconds until they are pliable.
To assemble the wrap, place one lettuce leaf on each whole wheat wrap. Add a portion of the cooked turkey kebabs, cucumbers, tomatoes, and red onion slices.
Drizzle the prepared yogurt sauce over the top of the filling.
Fold the wrap over the filling, tucking in the sides as you roll it up tightly.
Serve immediately, enjoying the fresh and heart-healthy flavors.
