Tasty Tuesday - Steak Stuffed Pita

INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp salt, or to taste
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 pound top round steak, 1 1/2 inches thick, trimmed
4 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
medium cucumber, diced
large tomato, diced
4-inch whole-wheat pitas, or four 8-inch pitas, split open (see Tip)

COOKING DIRECTIONS
Step 1 
Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.
Step 2 
Whisk lemon juice, oil, mustard, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Place steak in a shallow dish and pour half the dressing over it. Let marinate at room temperature, turning once, for 10 minutes.
Step 3 
Meanwhile, prepare the salad by adding lettuce, cucumber and tomato to the remaining dressing in the bowl; toss to coat.
Step 4 
Transfer the meat to a broiling pan. Broil for 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches desired doneness. Transfer to a cutting board, let rest for 3 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain. Mix the meat with the salad and fill each pita. Serve immediately.

RECIPE TIPS
Tip: Warm pitas on the bottom rack of the oven while the steak is broiling
