Ingredients

8 servings

1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh thyme coarsely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
2 tablespoons parsley (coarsley chopped)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cloves garlic (crushed)
1 medium lemon (juiced)
2 lbs lean lamb (diced into 1 1/2-inch cubes)
1 medium red onion (cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces)
1 medium red capsicum/bell pepper (cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces)
8 wooden skewers (or metal)
1 pinch sea salt and ground pepper
4 small pita bread, halved (or 8 small Tortillas)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pinch salt
1/2 medium cucumber (finely grated)
1 clove garlic (crushed)
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1 cup fat free Greek Yogurt
1 squeeze lemon juice
1 pinch sea salt to taste
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 medium red onion (thinly sliced)
1 medium cucumber (sliced)
2 tablespoons Kalamata olives (pitted and sliced)
3 1/2 oz Feta cheese (reduced fat)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar (adjust to your tastes)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch sea salt to taste

Steps

Combine the oil together with the herbs and spices, garlic and lemon juice; whisk well and mix the lamb through to coat evenly. Cover with wrap and refrigerate for 2-4 hours (or over night for a deeper flavour).
Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes (to prevent burning). Assemble the skewers alternating with 1 piece of onion, 1 piece of capsicum, and 1 piece of lamb. Repeat until all skewers are full. Sprinkle salt over the skewered lamb.
Heat a skillet/frying pan, griddle pan or barbecue, and cook the lamb for 15 - 20 minutes; turning once throughout cooking time until browned and crispy on both sides and cooked to your liking.
Heat a separate Grill pan on low-medium heat; brush with oil and place bread (two at a time) onto pan; flipping once until heated through.
Combine all ingredients together and mix until combined. Squeeze over some lemon juice (about 1/2 teaspoon or more) and set aside.
Combine all ingredients into a bowl and mix them through until well combined.
