2 oz Arugula
1 each Persian Cucumbers
4 oz Grape Tomatoes
1 each Lemon
2 oz Feta Cheese
1 oz Pitted Niçoise Olives
3 tbsp Garlic-Tahini Sauce
¼ cup Panko Breadcrumbs
2 tsp Honey
½ tbsp Shawarma Spice Blend (Ground Coriander, Cumin Seeds, Garlic Powder, Smoked Sweet Paprika & Ground Turmeric)
How to make it
1
Bring a medium pot of salted water (3/4 full) to a boil. Rinse and dry all produce. Halve the cucumbers lengthwise and thinly slice crosswise. Halve the tomatoes. Quarter and deseed the lemon(s). In a bowl, combine the cucumber, tomatoes, and the juice of 2 lemon wedges (4 wedges for 4 servings); season with salt and pepper and set aside to marinate. In a separate bowl, whisk together the garlic-tahini sauce and honey.
2
Add the couscous to the boiling water. Cook stirring occasionally 5-7 minutes until tender. Drain and return to the pot. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and stir.
3
In a bowl, combine the turkey, breadcrumbs, egg(s), crumbled feta, and spice blend. Gently mix. Shape into 10 equal-sized meatballs (20 for 4 servings). Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high. Add the meatballs in an even layer. Loosely cover with foil. Cook undisturbed 6-7 minutes until browned. Remove the foil. Continue stirring occasionally 6-8 minutes until browned on all sides and cooked through. USDA minimum: 165°F for turkey.
