Sharon's Scrumptious Souvlaki

This is my family's favorite Greek dish. Lamb is marinated overnight, then threaded onto skewers and grilled. The meat is served on a pita bread with a zesty, garlicky yogurt sauce. This can be served with a Greek salad and rice pilaf.

Place lamb in a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup olive oil, red wine, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, oregano, mint and garlic. Stir until lamb is well coated. Cover, and refrigerate 3 hours, or overnight.

Preheat grill, and lightly oil grate. In a small bowl, combine yogurt, cucumber, minced garlic and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with dill weed, salt and pepper; set aside.

Thread meat onto skewers. Grill 10 minutes, turning once. Lightly sprinkle pita bread with olive oil, and place on grill until warm, about 1 minute. Serve meat on pita bread along with sliced red onion, sliced tomato and yogurt sauce.
