Greek Turkey Tacos

I am a lover of all things FETA!!! This recipe was a hit with the family but instead of pitas we used tortillas. For myself, being as gluten free as possible I had corn tortillas!

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp olive oil (divided)
• 1 cup diced red onion (divided)
• 4 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 lb ground turkey
• 1 tbsp + 1 tsp oregano(divided)
• 1 ½ tsp black pepper (divided)
• 1 tsp kosher salt (divided)
• ½ cup sun dried tomatoes
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes (quartered)
• 1 cup cucumber (diced)
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
• 6 pita breads
• ½ cup feta cheese
• 1 lemon (sliced into 6 wedges)

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add 1 tbsp olive oil. Saute ½ cup of onions in the olive oil for 4-5 minutes, add the garlic, saute 1 minute, then add the turkey. Cook through, drain any grease, then add 1 tbsp oregano, 1 tsp black pepper, ½ tsp kosher salt and sun dried tomatoes. Simmer on low for 5 minutes.

In the meantime, combine the remaining ½ cup of onions with the cherry tomatoes and cucumber.

In a small bowl whisk the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil with the red wine vinegar, lemon juice and remaining 1 tsp oregano, ½ tsp black pepper and ½ tsp kosher salt.

Pour this mixture over the tomato cucumber salsa and toss to combine.


Warm the pita bread in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30-60 seconds on each side.
Add the cooked ground turkey to the pita bread, top with the cucumber tomato salsa, feta cheese and fresh mint.  Serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
