About Lamb backstrap souvlaki

Lamb Backstrap Souvlaki is a delicious Greek-inspired dish featuring tender cuts of lamb marinated in olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs like oregano. Traditionally skewered and grilled, the lamb is paired with fresh accompaniments such as cucumber, tomato, onions, and tzatziki sauce, and often served in warm pita bread or alongside a crisp salad. High in protein, lamb provides essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamin B12. While lamb contains saturated fat, choosing lean cuts like backstrap keeps it lighter. The olive oil and herbs in the marinade add heart-healthy fats and antioxidants, while fresh vegetables contribute fiber and vitamins to round out the meal. Moderation is key if served with starchy sides, but overall, Lamb Backstrap Souvlaki offers a flavorful and balanced option rooted in Mediterranean cuisine.
