MY COPYCAT COSI TURKEY AND BRIE PITA



My Copycat Cosi Turkey and Brie Pita image

This is my tribute recipe to what used to be a weekly indulgence for me, until they started using some sort of mutant turkey chunks. The Turkey and Brie sandwich with a biting hot honey mustard and a nice warmed up selection of Brie.

TURKEY PITAS WITH CUCUMBERS, CHICKPEAS AND TAHINI



Turkey Pitas With Cucumbers, Chickpeas and Tahini image

These vibrant, crunchy, creamy turkey sandwiches have all the flavors of falafel, but without the frying. They've got a lemony tahini dressing, soft chickpeas, and a cumin-scented tomato and cucumber salad, all packed into pitas with leftover turkey (use dark or white meat). The pickled red onions give these a wonderful brightness, and they're well worth the 10 extra minutes they take to make.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Pinch of granulated sugar
1/4 cup tahini
1 fat garlic clove, grated
1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 cup diced cucumber
1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 pitas with pockets, halved through the equator
10 ounces cooked turkey, shredded or thinly sliced (about 2 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup cilantro leaves and tender stems
1/2 cup mint leaves and tender stems
Hot sauce, such as zhug or Tabasco (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, stir together onion, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, salt, cumin and sugar. Let sit for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together tahini, remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice, garlic, pinch of salt and 2 to 3 tablespoons warm water to thin the sauce. It should be thick but pourable. Taste, and add more salt and lemon juice, if needed.
  • Into the bowl with onions, stir in chickpeas, cucumbers, tomatoes and oil. Taste, and add more salt and lemon juice if needed.
  • In each pita half, layer turkey, then drizzle with tahini-lemon mixture. Add spoonfuls of chickpea salad, cilantro and mint. Drizzle liberally with more tahini sauce and zhug, if you like.
