Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds skirt steak

  • 1 ½ cups Newman's Own® Herb & Roasted Garlic Marinade

  • 1 ½ cups plain non-fat yogurt

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • ½ teaspoon paprika

  • 2 tablespoons Newman's Own® Lighten Up® Light Lime Vinaigrette

  • 1 large seedless cucumber, 1/2 grated for dressing, 1/2 cubed for salad

  • 4 Pita breads or pockets, quartered

  • 2 heads romaine lettuce, chopped

  • ½ cup jarred roasted red peppers, chopped

  • ½ cup halved Kalamata olives

  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced

  • 2 tomatoes, seeded and diced

  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese

Directions

  1. Marinate steak with marinade for 30 minutes or longer. Heat indoor grill pan or outdoor grill over high heat.

  2. Cucumber Lime Tzatziki dressing: In a bowl, stir together yogurt, garlic, paprika, lime vinaigrette and grated cucumber. Cover and chill.

  3. Remove steak from marinade and discard marinade. Grill steak on one side until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn steak over and cook to medium-rare, about 3 to 4 minutes more. Let stand for 5 minutes then slice thinly against the grain. Brush pita triangles with olive oil then place on grill, watching closely, until golden brown.

  4. In a large salad bowl toss lettuce, chopped cucumber, red peppers, olives, onion, tomatoes and feta. Divide salad evenly among plates, top with steak and pitas. Drizzle with dressing. Enjoy!
