Lamb Gyro Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
Prepare the Lamb
In a large bowl, combine minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground paprika, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the lamb shoulder and let it marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
Assemble the Gyros
Warm the pita bread in a skillet or microwave. Place a generous amount of sliced lamb on each pita, then top with diced tomatoes, red onion, fresh parsley, and tzatziki sauce. Wrap the pita around the filling and serve immediately.
