Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 pound boneless leg of lamb
2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon dry sherry
4 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon honey
2 teaspoons grated fresh or frozen ginger
14 ounces julienned red bell pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 bunch arugula
5 scallions
4 8-inch flour tortillas
4 tablespoons plain nonfat yogurt

Steps:

  • If using broiler, cover broiler rack with foil and preheat.
  • Cut lamb in strips 1/4-inch thick, removing excess fat.
  • Combine soy sauce, sherry, vinegar, mustard, honey and ginger.
  • Stir lamb pieces into marinade to coat lamb well.
  • Heat oil in a nonstick skillet until hot, and saute pepper until soft.
  • Wash, dry and trim stems from arugula, and set aside.
  • If using a stovetop grill, broil or grill lamb until medium rare, about 10 minutes.
  • Wash, dry, trim and slice scallions and stir into cooked red peppers. Stir cooked lamb into red peppers.
  • Heat two tortillas in a toaster oven for about 1 minute.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of yogurt over each tortilla, top with a quarter of the arugula and a quarter of the lamb mixture. Roll up and serve.
  • Repeat with remaining tortillas.
