Grilled Gyro Kebabs

Step 1

Stir together all marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Place the lamb in a large zip-top bag or resealable container and pour in the marinade, making sure the meat is completely coated. Meat should marinate at least an hour and up to 48 hours.

Step 2

Fire up your grill or get your campfire going. You’ll be cooking the kebabs over medium-high to high heat.

Step 3

Build your skewers by threading the lamb, tomatoes, and halloumi on their own skewers. Brush the tomato and cheese skewers with oil, and season the lamb skewers with salt.

Step 4

Once the grill has reached a medium-high heat, place all the skewers on the grate. Grill, turning often, until the lamb has cooked through (about 10 minutes), the tomatoes are soft and beginning to blister (about 4 minutes), and the halloumi is soft and grill marks form (about 3 minutes on each side). Heat the flatbreads over the grill until warm.*If you'd like, you can also grill the lemon half until it begins to brown and caramelize a bit before juicing for the marinade.

Step 5

In the meantime, make the yogurt sauce by combining the yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, and salt.

Step 6

Build your gyros by spreading some of the sauce on each flatbread and topping with the lamb, tomatoes, and halloumi. Enjoy!
