How to Make Lamb Gyros
Step #2: Remove the onion from the food processor and place it in a tea towel, squeezing to remove all the juices. If you love Greek cuisine, then try these other Greek recipes: Greek Braised Chicken Thighs, Spanakopita, Greek Fava, and Classic Greek Salad. And speaking of Greece, these gyros bring back memories of our stay at the AVA Hotel and Suites in Athens – a fantastic boutique hotel close to many restaurants, shops, and sights. Step #7: Once removed from the oven, drain the fat. Step #8: Allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes, and place it on a wire rack (I also put a pan under the oven rack to catch any drippings). Place a heavy object on top to compress the gyro meat. I used a cast-iron skillet with 3 cans inside for additional weight. Step #9: Remove the weight and let the meat rest for 30 minutes.
