Ingredients:

• 3 thick pitas cut in half

• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1/2 bunch cilantro
• 1/2 bunch parsley
• 1/2 tsp baking sodia
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 tsp cumin
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp chili flakes

Spiced Oil Marinade:

• 1 tsp oregano
• 1 tbsp paprika
• 1/4 tsp coarse chili flakes
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
• 3-4 crushed garlic cloves

Instructions:

1. Combine meat, onion, garlic, herbs, and spices. Knead until sticky
2. Refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight
3. Whisk all marinade ingredients. Generously brush pitas inside and out
4. Divide filling into 6 portions; stuff into pita halves
5. Sear on grill at high heat 2-3 minutes per side, then lower heat. Cook 15-20 minutes total, basting with extra oil.
   • Tip: Stand pitas upright to crisp the open edge
   • No grill? Use a grill pan or oven (400F, flip halfway)
6. Serve hot off the grill
