Ingredients

• 500 grams ground lamb
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 small red onion, finely chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 large lettuce leaves
• 2 tomatoes, diced
• 1 cucumber, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon tahini
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and onions. Sauté until onions are soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 2

Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Stir in ground lamb, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 4

Season the lamb with cumin, ground coriander, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly and let cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse.

Step 5

While the lamb is cooking, prepare the tahini dressing by combining tahini, lemon juice, and water in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency with more water, if needed.

Step 6

Assemble the wraps by placing a large lettuce leaf on a plate. Add a generous spoonful of the spiced lamb mixture in the center.

Step 7

Top with diced tomatoes, cucumber, sliced red bell pepper, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.

Step 8

Drizzle the tahini dressing over the top and wrap the lettuce around the filling tightly.

Step 9

Repeat the process with the remaining lettuce leaves and filling. Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Mediterranean Lamb Wraps!
