Steps:
- For souvlaki, mix first 5 ingredients to make a marinade and set aside. Distribute lamb, bell peppers, onion and tomatoes among 8 skewers. Place in a large shallow pan with marinade. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours, rotating skewers once. Heat a gas grill to medium, or use a charcoal grill and allow the coals to turn a light-ash color. Coat grill with cooking spray. Grill until lamb is medium rare and lightly charred, 5 to 8 minutes. Rotate to cook evenly. To cook in oven, broil on metal skewers 6 minutes, rotating until evenly browned. Grill or toast pitas. For sauce, puree cucumbers and a pinch of salt in a food processor. Place in a fine-screen colander and squeeze out the juice. Reserve juice and discard pulp.

- You know when you hear chefs talking about “mise en place,” or the process of prepping all your ingredients? Well, that’s what you’re about to do. Cut 1 lemon into wedges and slice off white strip at the point of each wedge, also cutting out seeds (discard white part and seeds). Set wedges aside. Separate leaves of 1 romaine heart and wash/dry if necessary. Tear any large leaves into pieces. Strip oregano leaves from stems; discard stems. Set aside 1 Tbsp. oregano leaves. Finely chop the rest and transfer to a large bowl. Cut 1 cup cherry tomatoes in half.
- Finely grate 2 garlic cloves into bowl with chopped oregano. Add 1 tsp. salt, several dashes of hot sauce, and 1 Tbsp. cold water.
- Add 1 lb. lamb and use 1 clean hand to knead mixture, simultaneously rotating bowl with your other hand, to incorporate. Knead until a light film forms on side of bowl and mixture holds together in a single mass and is very firm (it will spring back when pressed), about 1 minute.
- Heat 3 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high until oil is shimmering. Carefully add lamb mixture and press into a single flat layer with a flexible spatula (a fish spatula works great for this). → Real Talk: A fish spatula is the only spatula you need.
