Lamb Gyro Kebab Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Lamb

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the lamb shoulder strips and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Cook the Lamb

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated lamb strips for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Pita and Rice

    Warm the pita bread in a skillet or oven. Prepare the cooked rice according to package instructions if not already done.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Gyros

    On each pita, layer a portion of rice, mixed salad greens, diced tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, and sliced lamb. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the lamb gyro kebabs with extra tzatziki sauce on the side.
