Greek Feta and Melty Gouda Cheesesteak

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 yellow onion
  • 1 lb shaved lamb shoulder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
  • Salt
  • black pepper
  • 1/4 cup Parsley
  • 1 tbsp Oregano
  • 1 tbsp Dill
  • 4 sandwich rolls or fresh pita split
  • 1/2 cup Feta Cheese
  • 4 slices gouda cheese slices
  • 1 cup tzatziki sauce
  • 2 Cucumbers
  • 1 cup Cherry or Grape Tomatoes
  • 1 Lemon

Equipment

  • Large Skillet
  • Baking Sheet

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F.

  2. 2

    Melt the butter with the onion in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook for to 5 minutes, until softened.

  3. 3

    Add the shaved lamb or skirt steak. Season with paprika, cayenne, salt, and black pepper. Cook for to 8 minutes, until browned. Stir in the parsley, oregano, and dill, then remove from the heat.

  4. 4

    Split the rolls or pitas and fill them with the meat. Top each with feta and a slice of cheese. Place on a baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. 5

    Stir the remaining feta into the tzatziki. Toss the cucumbers and tomatoes with a pinch of oregano and dill.

  6. 6

    Add lettuce to each sandwich. Spoon the feta tzatziki over, then top with the cucumber and tomato mixture. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon. I love serving these with oregano fries!

Ago's Notes

  • Adjust salt to taste based on your canned goods.

Let the smoky warmth of the spices and the bright freshness of parsley carry the rich, melt-in-your-mouth layers of cheese and tender meat. This recipe brings a bold Greek twist to the classic cheesesteak, celebrating simplicity with bold flavors.
