Ingredients
Ground Turkey Shawarma (Makes 4 Servings)
- 1 lb. Jennie-O Extra Lean Ground Turkey Breast
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon mild curry powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- black pepper to taste
- ½ cup unsalted chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice freshly squeezed
Turkey Shawarma Wrap Dressing (Makes enough for 1)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice freshly squeezed
- Pinch of kosher salt and black pepper
Turkey Shawarma Wrap (Makes 1)
- ½ cup Ground Turkey Shawarma
- 1 cup romaine lettuce
- ¼ cup cucumber chopped
- 1 tablespoon feta cheese
- 1 Whole wheat tortilla wrap (at least 8” around)
Instructions
Cook the Ground Turkey Shawarma
- First, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. When warm, measure in the olive oil.
- Add the ground turkey and break into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon. Add the garlic, then season with curry powder, cumin, salt and pepper.
- Move the meat and garlic around the pan as they cook, about 5-7 minutes
- When the meat begins browning and is no longer pink, pour in the chicken stock and deglaze the pan. Cook for 2-4 minutes, or until the chicken stock cooks out.
- Remove the skillet from the heat, then season the turkey with lemon juice, and set aside.
Make the Turkey Shawarma Wrap
- Measure the olive oil, red wine vinegar and lemon juice into a medium-sized bowl, then season with salt and pepper, and whisk.
- Add the romaine lettuce, cucumber and feta directly on top of the dressing. Toss until every piece of lettuce has been coated in the dressing.
- Place the whole wheat tortilla wrap on a flat surface. Layer the salad in the middle of the wrap, then add Ground Turkey Shawarma on top.
- Fold in the sides of the wrap, and roll slowly like a burrito. Secure the wrap with toothpicks, cut in half, and refrigerate until time to eat.
Notes
- Please note that the Ground Turkey Shawarma makes enough for 4 wraps, but the wrap ingredients/instructions are just for one.
- If you want to add more vegetables, like red onions or tomatoes, to the salad, feel free! Just keep in mind that the more vegetables, the harder the wrap will be to roll.
- If you eat a dairy free diet or are avoiding dairy, don’t add feta cheese.
