Mediterranean Pockets Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix together the yogurt, parsley, hot sauce, cumin, and salt and pepper, to taste.
• Slice the top off of each pita pocket. Fill each pocket with 2 slices of brisket, a quarter of the pickled cucumbers and drizzle with the yogurt mixture. Arrange on a serving platter and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Rub filets with 1/2 of the olive oil and 1/2 of the Greek seasoning. Wrap 1 slice of prosciutto around each filet. Place 1 filet on 1 sheet of aluminum foil.Combine tomatoes, zucchini, olives, capers, parsley, mint, lemon juice & zest and remaining spice blend in a small mixing bowl. Toss. Place equal amounts of tomato mixture on top of each filet. Top with goat cheese and black pepper.
• 2. Take the 2 opposite ends of foil, bring them together over filet and fold edges 2-3 times down and seal. Fold in 2 remaining open ends and seal. Place aluminum pockets on a large oven proof sheet pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Allow to rest for 5 minutes. Unseal and serve.

Steps:

• Toss the potatoes, onion and garlic with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Put the cod on a plate; drizzle with the lemon juice and season with salt, pepper and the thyme.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Tear off four 16-inch sheets of parchment paper. Make the packets (see photo gallery): Arrange about one-quarter of the potato mixture on one sheet of parchment; top with a cod fillet and about one-quarter each of the olives and tomatoes (along with some liquid from the can). Drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Seal as directed. Repeat to make 3 more packets; divide between 2 baking sheets.
• Transfer to the oven and bake until the parchment puffs and the liquid is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before opening.
• Meanwhile, mix the butter, chives, lemon zest and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Carefully open the packets; top with the chive butter.
