Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Beef sirloin steaks
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Oregano leaves (dried)
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, ground
- 8 large leaves Romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 medium Cucumber, sliced

Instructions
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, oregano, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
Place beef sirloin steaks in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the meat. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, ideally 2 hours for best flavor.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, remove steaks from the marinade and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until desired doneness is reached.
Let the beef rest for 5 minutes. Then, slice against the grain into thin strips.
To assemble the gyros, lay out a large Romaine lettuce leaf as a base.
Layer a few slices of beef on top. Add sliced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese.
Optionally, drizzle with a spoonful of tzatziki sauce.
Garnish with fresh chopped dill and serve immediately. Enjoy these gyros as wraps or fold them for an on-the-go option.
