Notes
Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a preheated oven at 375°F for 5-8 minutes to re-crisp the crust. Make-Ahead: The lamb mixture can be cooked up to 2 days in advance and refrigerated. Assemble and broil just before serving. Substitutions: Ground beef or chicken can be used in place of lamb. For a vegetarian version, use a plant-based ground meat substitute. Serving Suggestions: Serve with a side of tzatziki sauce for dipping and a simple cucumber-tomato salad.
