Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 large onions, (about 2 pounds) sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rings
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon fennel seeds, optional
Coarse salt and ground pepper
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 thick slices country bread
1 pound thinly sliced leftover Grilled Butterflied Leg of Lamb

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, fennel seeds (if using), and 2 tablespoons water; season generously with salt and pepper. Cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Raise heat to high; add vinegar and 2/3 cup water. Boil, scraping up browned bits from bottom of skillet, until liquid is slightly reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain onions in a sieve set over a bowl, reserving liquid.
  • Arrange bread slices on a baking sheet. Top each slice with lamb and onions, and drizzle with oil. Bake until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately, with reserved liquid spooned over top.

I'm going to try making these sandwiches with ground lamb instead of sliced lamb.

I followed the recipe exactly and my sandwiches turned out perfectly. I'm not sure why yours didn't turn out well.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my lamb sandwiches were dry and tough.

I cooked the lamb a little longer than the recipe called for and it turned out perfect.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The sandwiches were still delicious.

I used a different type of bread than the recipe called for and the sandwiches still turned out great.

The feta and pistachios added a nice touch of flavor and texture to the sandwiches.

The lamb was a bit tough for my taste, but the rest of the sandwich was delicious. I'll definitely try it again using a different cut of lamb.
