Preparation method
Preparation and marinating
Preheat the oven to 180 °C (conventional top and bottom heat). Cut the lamb into bite-sized (approx. 3-4 cm) cubes. Clean the potatoes and cut them into wedges, cut the red bell pepper into larger pieces, and crush the garlic cloves.
In a large bowl, mix together the lamb, potatoes, and bell pepper. Pour over the extra virgin olive oil, squeeze in the lemon juice and grate in the zest, then season with oregano, thyme, salt, pepper, and the crushed garlic. Toss thoroughly to coat the ingredients evenly with the seasonings.
Wrapping and baking
Lay two large sheets of baking paper in a large baking tray (overlapping in a cross shape). Pile the marinated meat and vegetables into the center, scatter over the whole cherry tomatoes, and crumble the feta cheese on top.
Chef's tip
The secret to kleftiko is a tight seal: the meat becomes incredibly juicy and tender in its own steam and the steam of the vegetables.
You can also serve it with crusty pita bread or sourdough bread to mop up the divine herb, lemon, and olive oil juices.
