Cut beef crosswise into thin 5x1/2-inch strips. Combine marinade ingredients and pour over beef strips. Cover and refrigerate for 2-8 hours. In a small bowl, combine yogurt, cucumber, garlic, and dill. Cover and refrigerate. Preheat oven to 450ºF. Drain marinade from beef, place meat in shallow pan and bake until crisp (about 10 min.). Stuff each pita half with beef, then top each with a spoonful of yogurt mix and sliced red onion.
