7. Lift the lid, move skewers to the 1 o’clock angle, and lower lid. Grill for another 3 minutes

8. Lift the lid and carefully remove the skewers from the grill. Arrange on a clean platter around a small bowl of tzatziki sauce, garnished with thin wedges of orange and/or baby-cut carrots, and pita bread. Serve immediately
