Ingredients

• 1 lb pork tenderloin, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 pita breads
• 1 cup diced tomatoes
• 1 cup sliced cucumbers
• 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/2 cup Greek-style yogurt
• 1/4 cup grated cucumber
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the pork pieces and marinate for at least 20 minutes, or refrigerate overnight for maximum flavor.
2. Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium heat. Thread the marinated pork onto skewers and grill for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred.
3. While the pork is grilling, make the tzatziki sauce by combining Greek-style yogurt, grated cucumber, lemon juice, chopped dill, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Stir well to combine.
4. Warm the pita breads on the grill for a minute on each side, or wrap them in foil and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F for 5 minutes.
5. To assemble the pitas, spread a generous amount of tzatziki sauce on each pita bread. Place a few pieces of grilled pork on top, followed by diced tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, and crumbled feta cheese.
6. Fold the pita in half, securing it with a toothpick if needed. Serve immediately and enjoy!
