Ingredients
Beef Gyros
- 2 lbs flank steak thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp parsley dried
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 red onion thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 cup beef broth or water
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar (optional)
- 3 whole wheat pitas or Naan bread, or Flat Out pitas
Tzatziki Sauce:
- ½ cup cucumber peeled, seeded, and chopped finely
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh dill
Optional Toppings
- carrots shredded
- onion chopped
- cucumbers chopped
- lettuce shredded
- goat cheese (optional, use container to measure)
Instructions
- Season your flank steak with dried parsley and black pepper. Thinly slice your red onion and steak. I recommend no thicker than 1/4", cut against the grain of the steak. Mince your garlic. 2 lbs flank steak, 1 tbsp parsley, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 red onion, 3 cloves garlic
- Set your Instant Pot to sauté and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the onions and garlic and sauté until the onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Then, add your sliced steak, beef broth, lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar. 1 tsp olive oil, 1 cup beef broth, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- Close and lock the lid and turn the pressure valve to sealing. Select Pressure Cook and set your cook time for 9 minutes.
- Chop the cucumber, mince the garlic, and mix together with the Greek yogurt, pepper, and dill in a bowl and store in the fridge until serving. 1/2 cup cucumber, 1 clove garlic, 1 cup Greek yogurt, 1 tsp black pepper, 2 tbsp fresh dill
- When the cook time is complete, quick release the pressure and remove the lid.
- Serve ¾ cup servings on ½ of a whole wheat pita and top with Tzatziki sauce and any of your favorite toppings. 3 whole wheat pitas, carrots, onion, cucumbers, lettuce, goat cheese
