I found this recipe in Savoring the Seasons with our best bites I made a few modifications which will be explained in the recipe
Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground lamb (I used Sirloin which I seasoned with the seasonings and grilled and sliced)
4 cloves garlic minced
1 1/2 teaspoons dried minced onion
1 tablespoon Dijion or Creole mustard
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon chopped rosemary, dried or fresh
4 whole wheat pitas or 6-inch rounds of flat bread (I used my grill bread recipe)
Thin onion slices
Fresh tomato slices
Directions:
1. Gently combine lamb, garlic, onion, mustard, salt, pepper, vinegar, oregano, and rosemary with your hands and shape into 4 oblong patties (they'll fit better in the pitas).
2. Grill 5-6 minutes on each side and remove from heat. (We mixed the seasonings together and rubbed them on the sirloin and then grilled it in the George Foreman.)
3. Allow to stand 5 minutes. Place on pitas or flat bread and add onion, tomatoes, and Tzatziki.
4. Fold like a taco and serve immediately. (For easy serving and cleanup wrap in aluminum foil.)
Tzatziki Sauce ( to top the delicious gyros)
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt (we used plain yogurt)
1 clove garlic, minced
1-2 teaspoons lemon juice
3 green onions, white ends finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
1/2 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions:
1. Combine ingredients in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste:
