Напрямки

If using wooden skewers, soak them in a shallow dish of water while preparing the meat.

Preheat the grill to medium-high (~500). Chop the onion into large pieces and pulse 1/2 the onion into an almost-puree. Finely chop the cilantro.

Defrost the garlic cubes in a medium bowl using the microwave, then combine ground meat, garlic, onion, and remaining ingredients except the olive oil. If the meat is relatively lean, add some olive oil.

Take a palmful of meat and press it around the middle of a skewer, then roll it lightly on a cutting board or between your palms to form an even "sausage" around the skewer about 6 inches long. Repeat with remaining skewers and meat.

Preheat the toaster oven to 300. Mist the pita breads with water, then stack and wrap in foil. Place in the toaster oven to warm while skewers are grilled.

Spray the skewers with olive oil or beef tallow spray. Grill the skewers, turning once, until firm to the touch and cooked through. Serve on warm pita, topped with tzatziki, tomatoes, and lettuce.
