For the Gyros Filling:

  • 1 pound ground beef or ground turkey (choose lean or extra lean)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For Serving:

  • Lettuce leaves or low-carb tortillas (for wrapping)
  • Tzatziki sauce (store-bought or homemade; use a low-carb version)
  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Sliced cucumbers
  • Red onion slices (optional)
  • Feta cheese crumbles (optional)

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Gyros Filling:

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet and sauté until they begin to soften and turn slightly brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Push the onions and peppers to the side of the skillet and add the ground beef or turkey to the empty space.
  4. Break the meat into small pieces using a spatula and cook until browned, stirring occasionally.
  5. Once the meat is cooked through, stir in the minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to infuse the flavors. Remove from heat.

Step 2: Assemble the Gyros: 6. Lay out your choice of lettuce leaves or low-carb tortillas on a clean surface.

  1. Spoon the cooked hamburger mixture onto each lettuce leaf or tortilla.

Step 3: Add Toppings: 8. Top the gyros with sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion slices (if using).

  1. Drizzle a generous amount of low-carb tzatziki sauce over the toppings.

Step 4: Optional Garnish: 10. If desired, sprinkle feta cheese crumbles on top for added flavor (this is optional and can be omitted for a dairy-free version).

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy! 11. Roll up the lettuce leaves or tortillas around the filling, securing them with toothpicks if necessary.

  1. Serve your keto Hamburger Peppers and Onion Gyros immediately.
