List of Ingredients
1 pound ground chuck
4 large, thick pita breads
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup ( 1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced
1 small red onion, sliced
Salt, freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
Lettuce leaves, for garnish
4 tomato slices, for garnish
Divide meat into four portions and form into half-moon-shaped
patties to fit on half a pita bread. Use a fork to mash the garlic
with butter in small bowl; set aside.
Heat olive oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms,
onion, salt and pepper; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Keep
warm.
Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for cooking. Spray grill rack with
non-stick cooking spray. Cook patties to desired doneness. (Can be
done in a covered grill. For medium rare, cook about 4 minutes on
one side; turn and cook 4 minutes more.) During the last few minutes
of cooking, brush one side of each pita with the garlic butter and
place, buttered side down, on the outer edges of the grill to toast
lightly.
Place a pita, toasted side up, on a serving plate. Place a patty
on one half. Top patty with 1 tablespoon feta cheese. Place part
of the mushroom mixture on the other half of pita. Repeat to make
4 sandwiches.
