Makes

Ingredients:

1/3 cup olive oil 75 mL

1/4 cup lemon juice 60 mL

2 tbsp finely chopped fresh oregano or 2 tsp dried oregano 30 mL

1 1/2 tsp Sensations by Compliments Roasted Garlic Seasoning Paste 7 mL

1/2 tsp salt 2 mL 1 lb boneless pork chops, flattened 500 g

4 whole wheat pitas

1 cup diced tomato 250 mL

1 cup diced cucumber 250 mL

1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion 60 mL

1/4 cup crumbled feta 60 mL

1/4 cup Compliments Tzatziki Yogurt & Cucumber Dip (approx) 60 mL

Directions:

Step 1
In a large non-reactive bowl, whisk together oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic paste and salt. Add pork; turn to coat with marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 30 min. to 24 hours.
Step 2
Preheat grill to medium-high. Remove pork from marinade; discard remaining marinade. Place pork on greased grill; close lid and grill until cooked through, 1 to 2 min. per side. Let cool slightly before cutting into thin strips.
Step 3
Meanwhile, brush pitas lightly with oil and grill for 30 sec. per side.
Step 4
Divide tomato, cucumber, onion and pork evenly among pitas. Top with feta and tzatziki. Serve with extra tzatziki on the side.
Tip
To flatten pork chops, place pork between two pieces of waxed paper and flatten with rolling pin until about 1/4-in. (5 mm) thick.
