---|---|
¼ cup | Lime juice |
2 teaspoons | Pooms olive oil |
4 \N | Cloves garlic; minced |
1½ teaspoon | Pooms; ground cumin |
1½ \N | Pounds; frozen flank steak, trimmed of fat |
2 \N | Cups; frozen chopped sweet red peppers |
1 cup | Frozen chopped green peppers |
2 cups | Frozen chopped onions |
1 cup | Nonfat plain yogurt |
½ medium | Cucumber; peeled and grated |
¼ teaspoon | Salt |

In a shallow nonmetal dish, combine the lime juice, oil, garlic, and I teaspoon of the cumin. Mix well. With a serrated knife, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. Add to the dish and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Coat a 10" no-stick skillet with no-stick spray and place over medium-high heat until hot. Add the red peppers, green peppers, and onions. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until soft but not browned. Add the steak and marinade. Cook, stirring, for 8 minutes, or until the steak is lightly browned and no longer pink in the center. Check by inserting the tip of a sharp knife into 1 strip.
In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, cucumber, salt, and the remaining ½ teaspoon curmin. Mix well.
Warm the pitas in the microwave on high power for 1 to 2 minutes.
Spoon the steak mixture onto the top of the whole pitas. Top with the yogurt sauce and roll up.
NOTES : Notes: Cut the flank steak into strips while it's frozen, then let it thaw right in the lime marinade.
