MIDDLE EASTERN PITA POCKET SANDWICHES - FORKS OVER KNIVES



Middle Eastern Pita Pocket Sandwiches - Forks Over Knives image

Creamy hummus and sumac-spiced veggies give these sandwiches a distinct Middle Eastern flare, especially when drizzled with or dipped in the homemade herbed tahini sauce. Pita pockets are easy to eat without getting messy, and the thin bread won’t overwhelm the filling like sub-style sandwiches tend to do, making these scrumptious snacks perfect for on-the-go eating. If you aren’t a fan of eggplant, feel free to substitute yellow summer squash or portobello mushrooms to add extra heft.

Total Time 35 minutes

Prep Time 25 minutes

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup chopped yellow onion
7 cloves garlic, minced
1¼ cups cubed zucchini (1-inch cubes)
1 cup cubed eggplant (1-inch cubes)
1 cup bite-size strips red bell pepper
1 teaspoon ground sumac
½ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ cup tahini
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
Sea salt, to taste
3 whole wheat pita rounds, halved crosswise and warmed
2 cups oil-free hummus
2 cups shredded romaine lettuce

Steps:

  • For filling, in a large skillet cook onion and 4 cloves of the garlic in ¼ cup water over medium 10 minutes or until onion is golden, stirring occasionally. (Don't add water; you want the onion to brown.) Add the next five ingredients (through cumin). Cook 10 minutes or until eggplant is tender, stirring occasionally.
  • For tahini sauce, in a bowl stir together tahini, lemon juice, parsley, the remaining 3 cloves minced garlic, and ¼ cup water until smooth. Season with salt. Stir in additional water if needed to reach drizzling consistency.
  • Open pita halves to make pockets. Spread hummus in pockets. Add ⅓ cup each lettuce and vegetable filling to each pita pocket. Just before serving, drizzle filling with tahini sauce.

Provided by EPICURIOUS.COM

Total Time 10 hr

Cook Time 30 min

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon dried oregano (preferably Greek), crumbled
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 (4 1/2- to 5-lb) butterflied boneless leg of lamb, trimmed of fat
3 10- to 12-inch metal skewers
a large (2-gallon) heavy-duty sealable plastic bag; 3 or 4 (10- to 12-inch) metal skewers

Steps:

  • Combine oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in sealable plastic bag. Add lamb and seal bag, pressing out air. Turn bag to coat lamb, then put bag in a shallow baking pan and marinate, chilled, turning bag over occasionally, at least 8 hours.
  • Bring lamb to room temperature, about 1 hour, before grilling.
  • Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure.
  • Remove lamb from marinade (discard marinade) and run 3 or 4 skewers lengthwise through lamb about 2 inches apart. Grill on a lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using gas grill, turning over occasionally and, if necessary, moving around on grill to avoid flare-ups, until thermometer registers 125 to 128°F, 8 to 14 minutes total for medium-rare.
  • Transfer lamb to a cutting board and remove skewers. Let lamb stand, loosely covered with foil, 20 minutes. (Internal temperature will rise to 135°F while meat stands.) Cut across the grain into slices.
