Preparation Steps
1
Wash the lamb and slice it thinly. In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and gyro spice blend. Add the lamb and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight in the refrigerator).
2
Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables: slice the cucumber and tomatoes into thin rounds, dice the red onion, and finely chop the parsley.
3
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the marinated lamb strips for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly browned.
4
Warm the pita bread in a dry skillet or oven until soft and pliable.
5
Fill the pita bread with the cooked lamb, sliced vegetables, and a dollop of Greek yogurt. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.
