Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Combine wine, oil, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper.
  2. Cut steak across the grain into slices as thin as possible.
  3. I use the Chinese trick of putting the meat in the freezer and partially freeze so that it will slice easier.
  4. Pour wine marinade over meat strips, refrigerate and marinate for at least 1 hour.
  5. Drain strips.
  6. Add butter or margarine to saute' pan.
  7. Add meat, in two batches, and saute' until brown on both sides.
  8. Remove to serving platter and keep warm.
  9. Wrap pitas in damp paper towels and microwave until very warm.
  10. Open one end of each pita to make pocket.
  11. Set out lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and yogurt.
  12. Let each person make his own.
  13. Tips: If you are lucky enough to have a Middle Eastern food store around,ask them for Lebne (pronounced leeb nee ) and use in place of the drained yogurt.
  14. It is much richer and creamier.
  15. Or make your own Tzatziki (cucumber, garlic, yogurt dip).
