Minute Steak Gyros Food

MINUTE STEAK GYROS (GREEK)

Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients or use your favorate greek seasoning.
• Separate the steaks, pat dry, and season liberally with greek seasoning. Restack and let sit in refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.
• Combine the stuff for the veggies in a bowl and let sit until ready to serve.
• In a non-stick pan, with a tiny bit of oil, fry the steaks in small stacks of 4-6 steaks per stack until brown. Remove and set aside.
• When all meat is cooked, slice the stacks into 1" segments.
• Brush the pita with olive oil and warm on a griddle or fry pan.
• Fold pita and pile on some meat, then veggies, and top with tzaziki sauce.

STEAK GYROS WITH TZATZIKI CUCUMBER SAUCE

Steps:

• Place steak, olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and juice from 1/2 lemon in a large resealable bag. Press excess air out and seal bag. Refrigerate for 1-8 hours.
• Spread cucumber slices out on a paper towel. Sprinkle generously with salt on both sides and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Wrap cucumber slices in paper towels, squeeze excess liquid out, and transfer to a food processor or blender.
• Add remaining sauce ingredients to blender and pulse until smooth and creamy. Cover and chill until ready to use.
• Preheat grill, grill pan, or cast iron skillet, to medium-high heat. Use tongs to transfer steak to grill and discard excess marinade. Cook steak for 6-8 minutes on each side until desired doneness (I recommend leaving just a hint of pink in the center for super juicy, tender meat with lots of flavor!)
• Transfer steak to a cutting board and allow meat to rest for a few minutes before slicing very thinly across the grain.
• Assemble gyros with lettuce, sliced onions and cucumbers, and steak. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce, top with black pepper and fresh squeezed lemon and serve immediately.

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK GYROS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Make the marinade: Whisk the olive oil, garlic, mint (if using), oregano, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a large bowl. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the marinade to a small bowl; mix in the yogurt and 2 tablespoons water. Add the bell pepper and onion to the bowl with the remaining marinade and toss; remove to a plate with a slotted spoon. Add the steak to the bowl and toss.
• Grill the bell pepper, onion and steak, turning once, until lightly charred, about 4 minutes per side for the vegetables and 4 to 8 minutes per side for the steak (depending on the thickness). Set aside to rest, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, grill the pitas until marked, about 1 minute per side.
• Slice the steak against the grain. Fill the pitas with the steak, grilled vegetables, tomato and watercress. Drizzle with the yogurt sauce.

STEAK GYROS

Steps:

• In a large, shallow bowl, mix oil, oregano, vinegar, and garlic. Add steak and toss to fully coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours, flipping the steak halfway through. Remove from fridge at least 1 hour prior to cooking.
• Preheat grill, grill pan, or large cast iron skillet, to medium-high heat. Season both sides of steak generously with salt and pepper. Let excess marinade drip off steak and transfer steak to pan. Cook until golden brown, 5-7 minutes per side for medium rare.
• Transfer steak to a cutting board and allow meat to rest for 5 minutes. Slice steak into 1/2-inch pieces across the grain.
• Assemble gyros by stuffing pita halves with lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and steak. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce and serve immediately.

GYROS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Process red onion in a food processor until finely minced. Scoop onion into a piece of cheesecloth and squeeze as much moisture from the onion as possible. Return onion to food processor; add garlic and process until the garlic is well integrated. Blend marjoram, rosemary, kosher salt, and black pepper into the onion mixture.
• Gradually blend ground beef and ground lamb with the onion and seasoning mixture by alternately adding small amounts of each meat to the mixture and processing until well incorporated before adding the next batch.
• Firmly pack the meat mixture into a loaf pan, assuring no air pockets are trapped in the meat.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 75 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 175 degrees F (80 degrees C). Drain grease and slice thinly to serve.
