Spiced Lamb Pitas With Fresh Mango Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Combine first 8 ingredients in medium bowl; blend well. Shape lamb mixture into four 1/4-inch-thick patties. Heat heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add lamb patties and sauté until brown and just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Cut each pita bread in half; fill each half with lamb patty.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the mangoes, peaches or nectarines, garlic, ginger and basil or cilantro.
• Add the chilies and lime juice to taste; mix well. Allow to chill 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• 1) Heat the over to 450. Mix the cumin, ginger, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Reserve 1/4 teaspoon of the spice mix in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, sprinkle the remaining spices over the lamb and mix with a fork to combine. 2) Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, Add the lamb and all but 1/3 cup of the onion. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with the side of a spoon, until the lamb is fully cooked, about 9 minutes. Spoon off the fat in the pan. Stir in 1/2 cup of the chutney and continue to cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and keep warm. 3) Meanwhile, add the remaining 1/3 cup onion and 2 Tablespoons chutney, the mango, cilantro, lime juice and a pinch of salt to the reserved spices to make a salsa; stir to combine. Taste and add more lime juice if it seems sweet (it should be somewhat tangy to offset the sweetness of the meat). 4) To serve, top the pita chips with some of the lamb mixture and a bit of the salsa.
