LAMB SKEWER PITAS
One of my favorite things to get at a Greek restaurant is souvlaki. You can get this dish with chicken, pork or lamb. My mother cooked a lot of lamb growing up, so when I order souvlaki, I always get lamb.

Steps:
- Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, mix the yogurt, sour cream, cucumber, onion, dill, vinegar, cumin, honey, salt, cinnamon, pepper and garlic until combined. Set aside in the refrigerator to chill.
- Make the lamb skewers: In a large bowl, combine the lamb, oil, coriander, cumin, salt, allspice, cinnamon and garlic until evenly coated. Divide the meat into 6 portions and form into logs. Thread each log onto a skewer, then transfer to a plate, cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
- Heat a cast-iron griddle over medium-high heat until very hot. Brush the griddle with oil. Grill the skewers, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
- To serve: Brush the pitas with oil and sprinkle with the zaatar. Add them to the griddle with the lamb and cook until toasted and warm, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- In a large bowl, toss the cucumber, cilantro, parsley, oregano, onions, tomato and fennel. Add the vinegar and 3 tablespoons oil and toss to combine. Season to taste. Remove the meat from the skewers and place on the pitas; top with some salad. Serve with the lemon wedges and tzatziki sauce.

Steps:
- Add the coriander, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, cinnamon and 1 teaspoon of salt to a small mixing bowl. Whisk to combine. Add the spice mixture to the lamb stew meat and use tongs to coat the meat in the spices. Set aside.
- Heat an electric pressure cooker to the sauté setting and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pot. Once the oil is shimmering, add the stew meat in batches, being sure not to overcrowd the pot. Brown the meat on all sides, about 4 minutes, then remove to a plate. Add an additional tablespoon of oil, if needed, before adding another batch of meat. Once all the meat has been browned and removed from the pot, add the red wine to deglaze, stirring and scraping the bottom to release any brown bits stuck to the base of the pot. Once the alcohol smell has burned off, 1 to 2 minutes, add the canned diced tomatoes and the browned meat. Stir to combine.
- Place the lid on the pressure cooker and seal. Set to high pressure according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once at high pressure cook for 15 minutes then allow the pressure cooker to naturally release for 10 minutes before manually venting the rest.
- While the lamb cooks, add the fresh chopped tomatoes, cucumber, onion, parsley, dill, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to a medium bowl. Toss to combine and set aside until ready to assemble.
- To assemble, slice each pita in half and open to create a pocket. Slather each side of the pocket with hummus, then add in a few pieces of romaine lettuce, covering the hummus. Next add a few spoonfuls of the cucumber-onion mixture and top with a few pieces of cooked lamb. Continue the process with the remaining ingredients.

GREEK-STYLE LAMB PITAS - EIGHT FOREST LANE
From eightforestlane.com
- Make the pita bread. Combine yeast, sugar and warm water in the base of a large bowl. Mix together and let rest for about 5 minutes covered with a damp tea towel until frothy. Add flour, oil and salt and mix either by hand with a wooden spoon, or using a dough hook attachment on your stand mixer, until the dough comes together. Turn the mixture out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for a few minutes, adding more flour if the mixture is too sticky, until you get a smooth dough. Place the dough back in the mixing bowl that has been lightly oiled and turn the dough until it is coated in the oil. Cover with a damp tea towel and leave in a warm spot for 45-60 mins until the dough has doubled in size.
- Marinate the lamb. While the dough is rising, cut up the lamb into strips and and place into a bowl. Finley chop the garlic and add to the bowl along with the olive oil, herbs, salt and lemon zest. Mix everything together, cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge while you finish the bread.
- Once the pita bread dough has risen, punch it down and turn out onto a floured surface. Knead again until the dough is smooth. Shape into a ball and cut evenly into 8 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and using a rolling pin roll out the dough into circles about 15 cm in diameter one at a time. Make sure to keep any dough that you are not working with covered with the damp tea towel so it doesn’t dry out.
- Heat your skillet on the stove with a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the dough one at a time, cooking for about 2 minutes until the bread is puffing and bubbling and the bottom is golden. Turn and cook for another minute. Repeat until all bread is cooked and set aside.
