1 pound Florida skirt steak
½ cup Florida cucumber, shredded
1 large Florida tomato, sliced thin
1 ½ cup Florida romaine lettuce, shredded
1 tablespoon Greek or all-purpose seasoning (add more to taste)
1 tablespoon fresh herbs (oregano, dill, parsley, mint), chopped fine
1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced
½ lemon, juiced
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
4 pitas, toasted
2 teaspoons quality olive oil
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
Preheat a cast-iron or grill pan over medium-high heat. Evenly season the skirt steak with 1 teaspoon of the seasoning blend. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the preheated sauté pan. Cook steak for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until desired doneness. Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest. In a small mixing bowl combine the shredded cucumber, 1 teaspoon seasoning blend, garlic, chopped herbs, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon olive oil, and the yogurt. Stir ingredients to combine. Add sea salt and pepper, to taste. Slice the steak into thin strips by cutting against the grain. Assemble the gyros by evenly layering each pita with sliced tomatoes, shredded romaine, crumbled feta, sliced cucumber, tzatziki sauce and sliced steak.
