Ingredients

    1. 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    2. 1 teaspoon dried oregano
    3. 1/4 teaspoon salt
    4. 2 boneless beef top loin steaks, 1 inch thick
    5. 1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp. prepared Italian dressing
    6. 3 tablespoons crumbled feta or 3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
    7. 3 tablespoons minced Greek olives
    8. 2 large pita bread, with pockets
    9. 8 cups mixed salad greens, lettuces
    10. 1 cucumber, cut lengthwise in half and thinly sliced
    11. 1/2 red onion, in thin wedges

Directions

  1. Combine garlic powder, oregano and salt. Press 1-1/2 teaspoon of the seasoning into both sides of beef steaks. In a bowl, add the rest of the seasoning to the Italian dressing, feta and olives.
  2. Cut pitas horizontally in half. Brush inner surfaces of pita halves evenly with 3 tablespoons of dressing mixture; reserve remaining dressing mixture. Cut each pita half into 8 wedges. Place wedges, cut sides up, in single layer on large baking sheet. Bake 12 to 15 minutes at 350 degrees, or until lightly browned.
  3. Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add steaks and cook 12 to 15 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning once. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the salad greens, cucumber, red onion and reserved dressing mixture. Trim the fat from steaks. Carve steaks crosswise into thin slices; add to salad and toss. Serve with pita wedges.
