Steps
Sequence Step
1Preheat oven to 450°F
2In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the onions and garlic in the olive oil. After 5-7 minutes, onions will become soft. Add the turkey and cook another 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat.
3In a bowl, combine the yogurt and cayenne; mix well. Taste and adjust spiciness to preference. Spread the spicy yogurt onto each pita, add the turkey, then the tomatoes. Top with the parsley, salt and pepper. Place in the oven and bake 5-7 minutes.
4The cheese will melt and the pitas will become crisp, be careful not to burn. Let the pizza cool 5 minutes and serve warm.
