List of Ingredients




1 pound beef shoulder top blade (flat iron) steaks
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed
1 teaspoon minced garlic
Salt and pepper
4 pita breads, cut crosswise in half, warmed
Tomato and sweet onion slices

Yogurt Sauce:
1 cup plain lowfat yogurt
1/4 cup diced cucumber
1 large glove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper


Recipe




1. Combine yogurt sauce ingredients in small bowl; cover and refrigerate.
2. Combine oregano and garlic; press evenly onto beef steaks. Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Place steaks in skillet; cook 13 to 15 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning twice.
3. Carve steaks into thin slices; season with salt and pepper, as desired. Serve beef in pita pockets with tomatoes, onion and yogurt sauce.

Makes 4 servings.


NOTE: Note: Beef Shoulder Top Blade (Flat Iron) Steaks come from the second most tender beef muscle. They are cut from the Top Blade Roast (IMPS/NAMP 114D), which is separated into two pieces by cutting horizontally through the middle to remove the thick connective tissue. Each half resembles a small flank steak. These pieces are then cut crosswise into 2 to 3 individual steaks. They average 7 ounces.
