Crispy Gyro Smash Tacos

Instructions

1. 1Stir together the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, 1 minced garlic clove, lemon juice, and a pinch of kosher salt. Chill the tzatziki while you cook.
2. 2In a medium bowl, mix the lamb with the oregano, cumin, remaining 2 minced garlic cloves, and 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt until just combined. Divide into 8 loose balls.
3. 3Dice the tomato and slice the red onion; set them out with the feta and tzatziki.
4. 4Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
5. 5Place 1 or 2 tortillas in the skillet. Set a lamb ball on each tortilla and smash it into a thin, even layer that nearly covers the tortilla.
6. 6Cook undisturbed until the lamb is deeply browned and the tortilla is crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook 1 to 2 minutes more, until the lamb is cooked through. Repeat with remaining tortillas and lamb.
7. 7Spread tzatziki on each taco, then top with tomato, red onion, and feta. Serve immediately.
