Simple Souvlaki

Directions

COMBINE THE LAMB with the garlic, onion, oregano, basil, rosemary, thyme, red pepper, lemon juice and salt and mix just until blended.

Form the lamb into 12 meatballs.

In a large skillet, heat the oil until hot and almost smoking.

Add the meatballs and sauté over medium-high heat until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.

Drain the lamb balls well.

Combine the garlic, tomato, cucumber, mint, lemon juice and yogurt in a small bowl.

Cut open 1 end of each warmed pita, fill with shredded lettuce and 3 meatballs.

Spoon the sauce over the meatballs and serve.
