Gyro Meat Recipe - Greek.Food.com - Food.com - Recipes ... image

I got this recipe from the newspaper years ago, and make it frequently. I serve it with my cucumber yogurt sauce, which I'm also posting. Be warned- It is very garlicky. Also, use less pepper if you're using all beef instead of lamb.

Total Time 20 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb lean ground lamb (I frequently grind the lamb in my food processor or meat grinder and sometimes add beef)
2 cloves garlic (crushed)
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano (crushed)
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Combine ingredients in a bowl, and shape into 1/2 inch thick patties.
  • Broil 8-10 minutes until no longer pink.
  • Slice thinly and serve with pita bread, sliced tomatoes, thinly sliced onion, cucumber yogurt sauce.
