Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground turkey breast
- 3 cloves Minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 pieces Low sodium pita bread
- 1 Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 Tomato, thinly sliced
- 0.5 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
- 1 cup Iceberg lettuce, shredded
Instructions
In a bowl, combine ground turkey, minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, cumin, paprika, ground black pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil.
Mix the ingredients well until everything is evenly incorporated. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into long, thin kebab shapes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the kebabs for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are fully cooked and have a nice caramelized exterior.
While the kebabs are cooking, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing the plain Greek yogurt with the chopped fresh dill in a small bowl. Set aside.
Warm the low sodium pita bread pieces in a dry skillet or in an oven for a few minutes until just softened and heated through.
Fill each piece of pita bread with two turkey kebabs, cucumber slices, tomato slices, red onion slices, shredded iceberg lettuce, and a spoonful of dill yogurt sauce.
Serve the kebab sandwiches immediately for the best flavor and texture.
