Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 6 cups water and 1 tsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1-inch pieces.
  • Peel, then grate a quarter of the onion (use half onion for 4 servings). Cut remaining quarter onion into 1/2-inch pieces (use remaining half for 4 servings).
  • Cut zucchini into 1/2-inch rounds.
  • Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Make koftas
2
  • To a medium bowl, add turkey, panko, grated onions, half the garlic, half the garlic salt and half the Shawarma Spice Blend.
  • Season with pepper, then combine.
  • Roll mixture into 6 (12) oval logs.
Bake veggies and koftas
3
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add peppers, zucchini, diced onions, remaining Shawarma Spice Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. 
  • Season with remaining garlic salt, then toss to combine.
  • Arrange veggies in a single layer. Place koftas on top of veggies.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for 14-20 min, until veggies are tender and koftas are cooked through.**
Cook orzo
4
  • Meanwhile, to the boiling water, add orzo. Cook for 8-10 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) pasta water.
  • Strain orzo, then return to the pot, off heat. 
Finish orzo and make sauce
5
  • To the pot with orzo, add vegetable stock powder, 1 tsp (2 tsp) lemon zest, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter and reserved pasta water. Stir to combine. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, stir together hummus, mayo, remaining lemon juice and remaining garlic.
