One-Pan Shawarma Beef Lettuce Wraps

with Tomato, Garlicky White Sauce, Almonds & Hot Sauce

We love a lettuce wrap. The crisp crunch, the perfectly cradled filling, and that satisfied-but-not-stuffed feeling afterward–what a perfect dinner idea! This version features fragrant, shawarma-spiced ground turkey scooped into lettuce leaves, topped with fresh tomato and tangy pickled onion, drizzled with creamy lemon-garlic sauce, and finished with crunchy almonds and hot sauce. It’s all ready in a quick 30 minutes—just keep napkins handy until you master your lettuce wrap-eating technique.

Instructions

Prep
1

• Wash and dry produce. • Halve, peel, and thinly slice half the onion; finely dice remaining half. Quarter lemons. Trim and discard root end from lettuce; separate leaves. Dice tomato.

Pickle Onion & Make Sauce
2

• In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine sliced onion, juice from one lemon, ½ tsp sugar, salt, and pepper. (For 4 servings, use juice from two lemons and 1 tsp sugar.) Microwave for 30 seconds; set aside to pickle, stirring occasionally. • In a separate small bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, ¾ tsp garlic powder (1½ tsp for 4), and a squeeze of lemon juice. (You’ll use the rest of the garlic powder in the next step.) Season white sauce with salt and pepper.

Cook Turkey
3

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add diced onion and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring, until slightly softened, 2-3 minutes. • Add turkey*, Shawarma Spice Blend, and remaining garlic powder; generously season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. • Stir in stock concentrates and ¼ cup water (1/3 cup for 4 servings), then reduce heat to medium low and simmer, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan, until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired. TIP: Stir in a splash of water near the end of cooking to make sure your turkey is nice and saucy!

Cook through this step as instructed, swapping in beef for turkey.

Assemble & Serve
4

• Divide lettuce between plates. Fill with turkey, tomato, and as much pickled onion as you like (draining first). • Drizzle wraps with white sauce and as much hot sauce as you like; sprinkle with almonds. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.

Ground Beef is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.
