Ingredients
Yogurt Sauce
Shirazi Salad
Turkey Meatballs
Directions
- 1
Start by combining ground turkey, egg, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped herbs, and onion in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Roll them into 12 golf ball-sized meatballs. Brush them with olive oil and pop them into the air fryer at 400°F for about 15 minutes until fully cooked.

Chop up cucumbers, tomatoes, and red onions into tiny cubes. Add a handful of mint (fresh or dried both works), season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with lime juice (or lemon, if you’re out of limes like I was). Give it a quick mix.
- 3
Mix plain yogurt, a little mayo, fresh lemon zest, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, pepper, and a dash of paprika.

Now just layer it up—start with the rice, add your herby turkey meatballs, drizzle on that yogurt sauce, and top it all with a generous portion of the salad. Finish with a little olive oil drizzle, and dinner is served.
