Prep. Time:

Total Time:

1 day :20

Ingredients:

Marinade:
2 cloves crushed garlic
2 tbsp. olive oil
1/2 tsp. oregano
1 tbsp. lemon juice
Sea salt and pepper

To Prepare:
1-1/2 lb. boneless pork or lamb loin or leg steaks
1 tsp. dried oregano
2 tsp. thyme
4 pita breads
4 tbsp. greek yogurt
4 oz. feta
Fresh spinach leaves
1 lemon, quartered

Directions:

Slice the meat finely but roughly at different angles. Mix all the ingredients for the marinade, add the meat, turn to coat, and let marinade until ready to cook. I usually do this in the morning and let it marinade all day.

Heat a nonstick fry pan and sear the meat over hight heat, tossing it in the pan until crisped on the edges, but still a little pink inside. Add the oregano and thyme, and toss well.

Heat the bread in a warm oven or dry frying pan for 3 minutes. Place a pita on each plate. Add a spoonful of yogurt, pile the lamb on top, and scatter the feta over. Serve with lemon quarters for squeezing over.

Comments from jinxycat :

This is fantastic! The original recipe calls for lamb, which I don't like, so I use boneless pork insead. Use lamb if you wish. I couldn't find good quality pitas, so I used lavash and made wraps instead, and also added some fresh spinach leaves. Fabulous tasting, and just as important, fast and super easy.
