Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground lamb |
1/3 cup finely chopped onion |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 tablespoons fine, dry breadcrumbs |
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano |
2 teaspoons chopped fresh mint |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 cup crumbled peppercorn feta cheese |
cooking spray |
2 (6-inch) pita bread rounds, cut in half |
4 red leaf lettuce leaves |
4 (1/2-inch-thick) slices tomato |
yogurt-cucumber sauce |
Directions:
1. Combine first 8 ingredients in a large bowl. Divide mixture into 8 equal portions, shaping into 1/4-inch-thick patties. Spoon 1 tablespoon feta cheese onto each of 4 patties (do not spread to edges); top with remaining patties, pressing edges to seal well.
2. Coat grill rack with cooking spray; place on grill over medium-hot coals (350° to 400°). Place patties on grill rack, and grill, covered, 6 to 8 minutes on each side or until done.
3. Wrap pita halves in heavy-duty foil. Add foil-wrapped pita halves to grill rack, and grill 2 minutes or until pitas are warm, turning foil pouch occasionally.
4. Line each pita half with lettuce. Place 1 slice tomato and 1 patty in each pita half. Drizzle 2 tablespoons Yogurt-Cucumber Sauce over each pita half.
