- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa

Creamy Hot Honey Feta Sauce

- 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes

- Cook the Turkey: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 6–8 minutes.
- Season the Meat: Add paprika, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the turkey. Stir well and cook for another 2 minutes until the spices release their aroma.
- Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, chili flakes, lemon juice, and olive oil. Mix thoroughly until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Assemble Bowls: Divide the cooked rice or quinoa evenly into serving bowls. Top each bowl with the spiced ground turkey, diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and chopped parsley.
- Finish and Serve: Drizzle the creamy hot honey feta sauce generously over the assembled bowls. Serve immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For a low-carb option, substitute the rice or quinoa with cauliflower rice.
- Adjust the chili flakes in the sauce to control the spice level.
- Use fresh parsley for a more vibrant flavor and garnish.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated thoroughly before serving.
- To make it gluten-free, ensure the cooked rice or quinoa is prepared without any additives containing gluten.
