- Place the meat in a non-reactive bowl. Mix together the lemon juice, oil, salt, pepper, 1 Tbsp. oregano, garlic, and grated onion, and pour over the meat. Cover and refrigerateat least 2 hrs and up to overnight. Thread the meat onto metal or possibly bamboo skewers.
- Heat the oil on a griddle or possibly in a large skillet over high heat. Add in the onions, remaining tsp. oregano and Essence to the griddle and cook light brown, about 6 min, stirring occasionally. Remove from the pan.
- Preheat a grill. Grill the skewers, turning occasionally, till brown on all sides. Remove from the grill. Quickly heat the pita bread on the grill till just warmed through and pliant. Holding a pita in the left hand, and the skewer in the right hand, pull the contents from the skewer into the pita bread. Repeat with the remaining skewers. Divide the cooked onions among the pita, and top with Tzatziki (cucumber sauce). Serve immediately.

Combine the cucumber and yogurt in a bowl with the remaining ingredients and stir well. Cover and refrigeratefor at least 1 hour before serving. (Makes 1 1/2 c.)
