This is a little bit of a more complicated recipe, mostly because we are using lamb. But don’t let a more exotic ingredient throw you off, lamb is excellent to work with. It’s still a little cold so you might be indoors, but this recipe should still work!

  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander

Using a fork, mix lamb, onion, parsley, coriander, cumin, cinnamon, salt, pepper, and ¼ cup oil in a large bowl. Cover and chill at least 1 hour.

Prepare grill for medium heat and oil grate. Working one at a time, open each pita pocket by cutting along seam, halfway around perimeter. Spoon filling into pitas, spreading to edges. Close, pressing on filling to seal.

Grill pitas until filling is cooked through and bread is crisp, about 5 minutes per side.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
