Cookware
baking dish · chef's knife · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · oven mitts · tongs · whisk or fork
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly oil a baking dish and set it aside.
- Wash and dry all fresh produce before chopping or slicing.
- Rinse and mince the dill leaves, discarding the stems, and place them in a medium bowl.
- In the bowl, combine the dill with the garlic, ground turkey, one egg, half of the feta, bread crumbs, Dijon, and herbs. Mix with your hands until everything is evenly incorporated.
- Shape the mixture into small meatballs using a rounded tablespoon as a guide and arrange them in the prepared baking dish. Bake until cooked through, about 15 to 18 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash remaining feta with the yogurt, a splash of water, salt, and pepper to form a thick feta sauce.
- In another bowl, whisk together oil, red wine vinegar, and your chosen spices to make a simple dressing.
- Thinly slice the shallot and add to the dressing, tossing to coat.
- Trim and slice the bell pepper; add to the bowl, then slice cucumber into rounds and add to the mixture. Halve the tomatoes and olives and toss everything to combine.
- When the meatballs are ready, halve the pitas and gently open them to form pockets. Divide the meatballs, salad, and feta sauce among the pitas and serve.
Two tips
- Make ahead: the feta sauce can be prepared a day in advance and kept refrigerated until serving.
- Serving idea: if you have parsley on hand, you can substitute it for dill; the dish also benefits from a few extra olives or cucumber slices for added crunch.
