Ingredients

  • 454g lean ground beef
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1 on-the-vine tomato, finely diced
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon coriander
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • Salt & pepper
  • 4 large flour tortillas

For serving:

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 3–4 tablespoons chopped dill, plus more for serving
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Directions

  1. Heat your oven to 475ºF and lightly grease sheet pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set out 8 metal or bamboo skewers
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, onion, tomato, parsley, and garlic. Season with the cumin, smoked paprika, turmeric, coriander, cayenne, and cinnamon. Add in ½ teaspoon of salt and a pinch of pepper and mix well to combine.
  3. Divide the mixture onto the flour tortillas and spread into an even layer all the way to the edge. Tightly roll up the tortillas and slice into 1-inch-thick pinwheels. Thread the pinwheels onto the skewers and transfer to the prepared sheet pan. Transfer to the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until cooked through to 165ºF. Once the meat is cooked, turn the broiler on to high and broil for 1 to 2 minutes or until golden on top.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by mixing the yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, and garlic in a small bowl. Stir through the dill and feta and season with salt and pepper.
  5. Serve the kebab pinwheels scattered with dill, if desired, with the sauce and lemon wedges on the side.
