Greek Lamb and Fetta Pizza
30 min
Serves 6
Ingredients
juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
400g lamb backstraps or fillets
3 large pizza bases
1 cup Italian-style tomato cooking sauce
200g South Cape Greek-style Fetta, crumbled
1/2 cup pitted black kalamata olives
100g baby spinach
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Method
- Shake lemon juice, oil and oregano together in a jar. Marinate the lamb in half the lemon dressing for at least 15 minutes.
- Place pizza bases on oven trays and top with tomato sauce, half the crumbled South Cape Greek-style Fetta and olives and bake at 220°C for 10-15 minutes.
- Chargrill lamb until cooked to your liking and rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Toss spinach with a little dressing to moisten.
- Top hot pizzas with spinach, sliced lamb and remaining Fetta. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with pepper.
Tips
- Lamb can be cooked ahead of time, sliced and added to pizza in the oven in the last 5 minutes of cooking time to heat through.
- Reserve a little South Cape Greek-style Fetta and extra oregano to sprinkle on top of pizzas as a garnish if desired.
- Spinach may be substituted with rocket.
