INSTRUCTIONS
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 1/2
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.
