Sheet Pan Chicken Kefta Wrap with Cucumber Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Ground Chicken (substitute with lamb or beef)
  • 1 Yellow Onion (grated)
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Cilantro (finely chopped)
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Mint (finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp. EACH: Salt & Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp. EACH: Ground Cumin & Ground Turmeric
  • Zest of 1 Lemon
  • Lavash Bread (for serving)
  • Hummus (for serving)
  • Pickled Onions (for serving)
  • 1 English Cucumber (thinly sliced)
  • 2 cups Baby Arugula
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes (sliced)
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Dill (chopped)
  • 2 tbsp. Olive Oil
  • 2 tbsp. Red Wine Vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)

Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400F. Line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a bowl lined with cheese cloth or fine kitchen towel, grate the onion. Squeeze as much liquid out as possible. Set aside. Alternatively, you can finely chopped 1/2 a large yellow onion.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken with the onion, chopped herbs, lemon zest, and seasonings. Mix well.

  4. 4

    Using wet hands, evenly pat out the chicken mixture on the prepared pan to a 1/2" thick rectangle. Slice into large strips, then use the knife to gently separate each strip giving some space between them. Drizzle with olive oil.

  5. 5

    Bake for 15-20 minutes, until cooked through, then broil 1-2 minutes to brown on top at the end.

  6. 6

    Toss all ingredients together. Season with salt and black pepper.

  7. 7

    On a piece of lavash bread, or wrap of choice, add a slather of hummus, 1-2 strips of the chicken kefta, and a generous serving of the cucumber salad. Wrap tightly, then place on a skillet greased with olive oil to cook 1-2 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Enjoy warm!
