Instructions
Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips.
In a large bowl, combine cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, garlic powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper.
Add olive oil and lemon juice to the spice mix and stir to create a marinade.
Add the beef strips to the marinade, ensuring each piece is coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated beef strips for about 6-8 minutes, turning halfway, until cooked through.
While the beef is cooking, make the garlic sauce by mixing the Greek yogurt, minced garlic cloves, ground paprika, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper in a small bowl.
Warm the low sodium whole wheat flatbreads on a pan or in the oven.
Assemble the wraps by placing cooked beef onto each flatbread. Top with sliced cucumber, tomato, red onion, chopped parsley, and a dollop of the garlic sauce.
Wrap tightly and serve warm.
