Turkey Gyro
Ingredients
  • 8 cup (1/2 lb) 93% lean turkey breast
  • 1/2 tbsp oregano
  • 1/2 tbsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 cup plain, non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup plain, non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp shredded cucumber (liquid removed)
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Shredded lettuce to taste
  • Tomato to taste
  • Cucumber to taste
  • Onion to taste
  • Optional feta cheese to taste
Instructions
  1. 1

    Combine your ground turkey and spices well. Roll into 1 oz meatballs & air fry at 375°F for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through. (Or pan-fry/bake!)

  2. 2

    For your pita, mix flour, yogurt, and salt. Knead on a floured surface, split dough in half (or fourths), and roll into circles. Cook on a hot pan 3 min per side or until golden brown.

  3. 3

    For tzatziki, mix yogurt, cucumber, dill, lemon juice, and salt until combined.

  4. 4

    Assemble your gyro: pita + shredded lettuce + tomato + meatballs + tzatziki (plus feta if you’d like!) and enjoy!
