9 steps

Mix olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper for the marinade.
Thread pieces of lamb, bell pepper, onion, and cherry tomatoes onto 8 skewers.
Place the skewers in a dish, pour the marinade over them, cover, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, turning occasionally.
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Grease the grate with oil.
Grill the skewers for 5-8 minutes until the meat is cooked through, turning occasionally. Alternatively, you can broil them in the oven for about 6 minutes.
Warm the pita bread on the grill or in a toaster.
For the sauce, blend the cucumbers with a pinch of salt in a blender, strain the juice through a sieve, and discard the pulp.
Mix the cucumber juice with lemon juice, yogurt, and garlic. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the cooked skewers with pita and yogurt sauce.
