Prep time: 40 min
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 55 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Middle Eastern
Ingredients: 1 lb thinly sliced beef or lamb; 1 tbsp olive oil; 1 tsp ground cumin; 1 tsp paprika; 1/2 tsp garlic powder; Salt and pepper to taste; 4 pita bread rounds; 1 cup shredded lettuce; 1 cup diced tomatoes; 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onions; 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley; 1/2 cup Greek yogurt; 1 tbsp lemon juice; 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions

In a bowl, combine the olive oil, ground cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the thinly sliced beef or lamb to the bowl and toss until the meat is well coated with the spice mixture. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated meat to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and slightly charred. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once cooked, remove the meat from the skillet and set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and minced garlic to make the yogurt sauce. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
To assemble the Donerbox, warm the pita bread rounds in the skillet for a few seconds on each side until they are slightly toasted and pliable. Place a generous portion of the cooked meat on each pita bread round.
Top the meat with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced red onions, and chopped parsley. Drizzle the prepared yogurt sauce over the toppings.
Carefully fold the pita bread around the filling to create a wrap or box shape. Secure the Donerbox with parchment paper or a toothpick to hold everything in place.
Serve the Donerbox immediately while warm, or pack it into a bento box for a delicious and portable meal option.
