• total time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

1 teaspoon Turmeric

½ cup Jasmine Rice

2 unit Scallions

1 unit Lemon

1 unit Roma Tomato

4 tablespoon Sour Cream

2 tablespoon Mayonnaise

1 teaspoon Garlic Powder

10 ounce Ground Turkey

1 tablespoon Shawarma Spice Blend

3 unit Chicken Stock Concentrate

½ ounce Sliced Almonds

2 unit Whole Wheat Pitas

2 teaspoon Hot Sauce

1 teaspoon Cooking Oil

3 tablespoon Butter

Salt

Pepper

Directions

• Melt 1 TBSP butter in a small pot over medium heat. Stir in ¼ tsp turmeric (½ tsp for 4 servings) until combined. • Stir in rice, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4), and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to use in step 5.

• Meanwhile, bring 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4 servings) to room temperature. Wash and dry produce. • Quarter lemon. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Dice tomato.

• In a small bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Add water 1 tsp at a time until sauce reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and cook until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. • Add turkey*, Shawarma Spice, ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4 servings), 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). Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.

• Fluff rice with a fork; stir in almonds and half the scallion greens. Season with salt and pepper to taste. • Toast pitas. Spread with softened butter; cut each pita into four pieces.

• Divide rice between bowls. Top with turkey and tomato in separate sections; sprinkle tomato with a pinch of salt. Drizzle turkey with hot sauce to taste. Drizzle white sauce over bowls; garnish with remaining scallion greens. Serve with pitas and remaining lemon wedges on the side. TIP: If you like, scoop up some of the rice, turkey, tomato, and sauces with the pita and eat it all in one bite!
