For the Ground Turkey:
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Wrap:
- 4 large flatbreads or tortillas
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- ½ cup cucumber, diced
- ¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
For the Hot Honey Feta Cream:
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ teaspoon hot sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Sauté Aromatics: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, stirring frequently and sautéing until the onion is translucent and soft, about 3–4 minutes.
- Cook the Turkey: Add the ground turkey to the skillet along with paprika, ground cumin, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Break up the meat with a spatula and cook until browned and fully cooked through, approximately 6–8 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Prepare the Hot Honey Feta Cream: In a small bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, hot sauce, and minced garlic. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Adjust hot sauce according to your heat preference.
- Warm the Flatbreads: Gently warm the flatbreads or tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds, making them pliable and easier to roll without tearing.
- Assemble the Wraps: Spread a generous layer of the hot honey feta cream evenly over each flatbread. Top with the cooked ground turkey, then layer on cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, thinly sliced red onion, and fresh chopped parsley.
- Serve: Fold or roll the wraps tightly. Serve immediately to enjoy fresh flavors and the contrast of creamy, spicy, and crisp textures.
Notes
- For a spicier wrap, increase the hot sauce quantity in the feta cream or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the turkey.
- Flatbreads can be substituted with whole wheat tortillas for added fiber.
- The wrap is best eaten fresh but can be refrigerated and eaten cold for a different texture.
- Feel free to add other Mediterranean veggies like roasted red peppers or olives for extra flavor.
- To make this dish lower in fat, use reduced-fat Greek yogurt and lean ground turkey breast.
