How to cook deliciously - Easy Lamb Gyros

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Spray a large loaf pan with cooking spray.

2. Stage

Combine lamb, Greek seasoning, and egg in a bowl. Mix until ingredients are very well combined (overmixing is preferable here.) Firmly press mixture into the prepared loaf pan, making sure there are no air pockets under the meat. Cover with foil.

3. Stage

Cook in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 2 hours.

4. Stage

Remove from the oven and let rest, covered, until all the grease on top is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.

5. Stage

Remove meat from the pan and cut into thin slices.

6. Stage

Load meat into the center of warmed pitas. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, onion, and tzatziki sauce. Serve immediately.
