Ingredients

Scale

Mediterranean Ground Beef

  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ small onion, finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Lemon Hot Honey Feta Sauce

  • ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons hot honey
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1–2 tablespoons warm water (to thin if needed)

For Assembling the Wraps

  • 4 large pita breads or flatbreads
  • 1 cup shredded romaine or lettuce
  • ½ cup diced cucumber
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ¼ small red onion, thinly sliced
  • Optional: sliced olives or pickled peppers

Instructions

  1. Cook the Ground Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook for 2–3 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked about 6–8 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary. Season with oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Stir well and cook for another 1–2 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in fresh parsley.
  2. Prepare the Lemon Hot Honey Feta Sauce: In a bowl or food processor, combine feta, Greek yogurt, hot honey, lemon zest, lemon juice, and olive oil. Blend or mash until smooth and creamy. Add warm water gradually to achieve a drizzle-friendly consistency.
  3. Assemble the Wraps: Warm the pita breads slightly to make them pliable. Spread a generous spoonful of lemon hot honey feta sauce over each wrap. Add a portion of the seasoned ground beef, then top with lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, and red onion. Drizzle extra sauce on top if desired. Fold tightly and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of hot honey in the sauce according to your spice preference.
  • Use warm water gradually to get your desired sauce consistency without making it too runny.
  • Optional toppings like sliced olives or pickled peppers add extra flavor and texture.
  • Warm the pita breads before assembling to prevent cracking when folding.
  • You can substitute ground beef with ground lamb for a more traditional Mediterranean flavor.
