How to Make Garlic Beef In Pita Bread

In a bowl, combine minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Add the thinly sliced beef to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the garlic mixture.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
Cook the beef in batches for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Do not overcrowd the pan.
While the beef is cooking, warm the pita breads. You can do this in a dry skillet, oven, or microwave.
Once the beef is cooked, optionally chop it into smaller, more manageable pieces.
Fill each pita bread with the cooked beef, and top with fresh parsley and a dollop of tzatziki sauce, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy with a side green salad!
