Ingredients

  • 4 petite sirloin steaks
  • 4 naan flatbreads or pita bread
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • ½ cups mixed bell peppers or mini peppers sliced
  • 1 large onion red or yellow, sliced
  • 1 zucchini sliced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • feta cheese for garnish
  • arugula for garnish
  • Greek Yogurt Sauce:
  • 1 5-6 oz cup full fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 large clove garlic
  • juice of half a lemon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh mint minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill minced
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the marinade for the steak
  • Combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper in a baking dish.  Add the steak and marinate for 15 to 30 minutes to infuse the steak with flavor.
  • Meanwhile, heat the grill to medium-high heat.
  • Toss the sliced veggies in olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and dried oregano.
  • Place a sheet of foil on the grill and add the veggies.  Grill for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping occasionally until seared and slightly charred.
  • Prepare the lemon herb Greek Yogurt Sauce
  • In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, dill and mint, salt, and pepper and stir well to combine.
  • Add the steak to the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through.   The grilling time will vary depending on the thickness of your steak.  Be sure to use a thermometer to check the internal temperature.
  • Since a petite sirloin is very thin - it cooks incredibly fast, so plan on 8-10 minutes total grilling time for that cut of beef.
  • While the steak is grilling, prepare the naan.  In a small bowl, pour olive oil and add a pinch of salt, pepper, dried oregano, or you can use your favorite all-purpose spice blend - like Kinders or Grill Mates Montreal Seasoning blend.
  • Lightly brush the seasoned olive oil over the naan.
  • Once the steak is cooked, remove it from the grill, cover to rest for a few minutes, then thinly slice the steak against the grain.
  • Add the naan to the grill to toast both sides - about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Remove the grilled veggies to a plate and assemble the gyros.
  • Assemble the gyros by layering the lemon herb Greek yogurt sauce over the toasted naan, then the sliced steak, grilled veggies, a handful of arugula and feta cheese.

Notes

The naan is larger than pita bread, so it's difficult to fold like traditional gyros - but you can cut it in half to roll, or cut into quarters to eat as a flatbread.
