This past weekend I hosted a rather large holiday party and did some serious cooking. While everything turned out great, it seems that the easiest dish was also the most popular. Go figure.
Lamb & Feta Naan Pitas
from So Easy by Ellie Krieger
1 small onion chopped
8 ounces of lean ground lamb
4 medium plum tomatoes chopped
2 tablespoons of chopped parsley
¾ teaspoon of cinnamon (I added a bit more)
¾ teaspoon of cumin (wasn’t in the recipe but I added it)
4 naan breads (she uses pita but naan is just way better!)
¾ cup of feta crumbled
1-2 tablespoons of pine nuts
Preheat oven to 400
Brown onion and lamb in a skillet with olive oil
Drain fat and return to pan
Stir in spices and tomatoes and cook for another 5 minutes
Place naan in the oven, brush with oil and top with lamb, feta and pine nuts
Cook for approximately 10-15 minutes until feta softens
Since I was cooking a fairly large menu, I made the lamb mixture the night before to cut down on time. Enjoy!
