Post Pita Pocket Pork Sandwiches
1 lb boneless loin chops, sliced in thin strips
1 TB EVOO
1 tsp cracked black pepper
1/2 c roasted red peppers
1 TB finely minced garlic
1/2 c mayo
2-3 tsp milk or lemon juice
lettuce
8 pita halves

(I've never actually measured any of this... sorry lol)

Mix together pork strips, oil, pepper. Refrigerate at least a half hour.
mix mayo, garlic, thin with milk or juice to make a salad dressing consistency, set aside.
Brown pork, add red peppers to heat thru.
Stuff into pitas with lettuce and dressing, don't be shy to use LOTS of dressing!

Sounds like a "lamb-less" version of a gyro.
Thanks for the recipe. This will give me another use for pork loin, though I'll probably just use a tortilla shell. I've always got those on hand.

Here's an alternate sauce for them if you are not into the mayo sauce.....

10 oz (or so) plain greek style yogurt
1 TB fresh minced garlic
1/3 cup finely chopped cucmber ( I used the english, no peeling or seeding)
1/2 tsp salt
1 TB mayo
1 tsp dried dill
1 tsp finely chopped fresh mint
pepper to taste

mix all ingredients, let stand while cooking for flavors to bloom.
