Cook: 15 min
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup feta cheese
  2. 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  3. Zest of 1 lemon
  4. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  5. 1 tablespoon olive oil
  6. 8 ounces ground sirloin
  7. Four 6-inch pitas
  8. 2 tablespoons sliced fresh mint (about 2 sprigs)
  9. 10 pitted black olives, halved
  10. 1 plum tomato, cut into 1/4-inch slices
  11. 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat a grill on medium-low heat. Using a fork, mix together the feta, 1/3 cup warm water, 1/4 teaspoon of the Italian seasoning, the lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small mixing bowl until the mixture comes together and the feta is in small chunks. Set aside.
  2. 2. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sirloin, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook until the meat is no longer pink and begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain any liquid off and set aside.
  3. 3. Spread the feta mixture on the pitas and top with the cooked meat. Place a large piece of nonstick foil directly onto the preheated grill. Place the pitas on the foil, cover and grill until the bottoms begin to char and the cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the sliced mint, olives, tomatoes and onions. Serve warm.
