Lamb Sliders

These adorable Lamb Sliders with Dill Greek Yogurt taste like a classic Greek gyro in bite-sized form. Crispy patties of ground lamb are nestled into mini pita pockets, stuffed with sliced cucumbers, and drowned in an easy dill and lemon-infused Greek yogurt. The perfect Mediterranean bite!

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 lb ground lamb
  • 2 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 large garlic cloves, grated or finely minced
  • 1/4 small onion, grated or very finely minced
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 3 tbsp plain breadcrumbs (panko are fine)
  • 2 tbsp + 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried dill
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 medium cucumber, very thinly slices
  • 15 mini pitas

Instructions

  1. Add lamb, rosemary, oregano, garlic, onion, salt, egg yolk, breadcrumbs, and 1 teaspoon olive oil to a large bowl. Mix until combined. Do not over mix.
  2. Separate the mixture into 15 loose balls. Flatten into patties about the size of the pita or slider buns.
  3. Heat a large griddle or cast-iron skillet to a medium-high heat, drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Add half of the patties to the griddle or skillet, use a spatula to flatten the patties as much as your can. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook another 1-2 minutes.
  4. Repeat with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and the remaining patties.
  5. While the patties cook, add the Greek yogurt, dill, lemon juice and teaspoon olive oil to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  6. To assemble: Cut a slit in each pita wide enough to fit patties in. Stuff cooked patties in the pita, spoon a little bit of dill sauce in and layer cucumbers on top. Garnish with more dried or fresh dill.

Notes

  • *If you can't find mini pitas, you can also use mini slider buns.
