Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground lamb, grated onion, minced garlic, ground cumin, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

Step 3

Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and transfer the meat mixture into the pan, pressing down to form an even layer.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the gyro meat is cooked through and lightly browned on top.

Step 5

While the meat is cooking, wash the romaine lettuce leaves and pat dry. Arrange them on a cutting board or serving tray as your low-carb wraps.

Step 6

Prepare the tzatziki sauce by mixing Greek yogurt, chopped dill, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Stir until well combined and set aside.

Step 7

Once the gyro meat is cooked, remove it from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly.

Step 8

To assemble the wraps, place a few slices of gyro meat onto each lettuce leaf, followed by diced tomatoes, cucumber slices, red onion, and crumbled feta.

Step 9

Drizzle with tzatziki sauce, then fold the lettuce around the filling to form a wrap. Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb classic gyro wrap!
