Greek-Style Beef Pita
You’re gonna need a bigger pita. Season thin-sliced Sirloin with lemon pepper and skillet-cook, then pile it into hummus-filled pita pockets and top with your favorite veggies.
Servings: 4 pita sandwiches
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 lb. Sirloin Tip beef steaks, cut 1/8-1/4" thick
- 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon pepper and salt
- 2-3 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
- 3/4 cup hummus
- 4 whole wheat pita rounds, cut in half
- Optional toppings:
- Sliced Kalamata olives
- Sliced red onion
- Sliced cucumbers
- Feta cheese crumbles
Cooking Instructions:
- Stack beef steaks; cut lengthwise in half, then crosswise into 1" wide strips and place in a medium bowl. Season the meat with the lemon pepper and salt, tossing with tongs to coat the slices evenly with the seasonings. Set aside.
- Heat 2-3 teaspoons of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- When the skillet is very hot, add half of the sliced beef and stir-fry the meat for 1 to 3 minutes, until the outside surface of the beef is no longer pink, but taking care not to overcook.) Remove from the skillet.
- Repeat with the remaining beef, adding another teaspoon of oil to the skillet if necessary.
- Slice the pitas into half-moons and lightly toast the bread.
- Carefully spread the hummus inside pita pockets, not breaking them. Fill with equal amounts of beef and any desired toppings.
