Steps:
- Prepare an ice-water bath. Cook green beans in a pot of boiling salted water until bright green and just tender, about 4 minutes. Drain; transfer to ice-water bath, and drain again. Cut into thirds. Toss with mint, cucumber, and lettuce.
- Pour 1/4 cup oil into lemon juice in a slow, steady stream, whisking until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper.
- Toast pitas over the flame of a gas burner, turning with tongs, until crisp and blackened in spots. (Alternatively, char in broiler, turning.) Rub with garlic, and brush with remaining 1/4 cup oil. Season with salt. Tear into large pieces. Drizzle dressing over salad; toss to coat. Serve with pitas.

Steps:
- To toast the pita: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. On a large, rimmed baking sheet, toss the torn pita with 2 tablespoons olive oil until lightly coated. Sprinkle with salt and bake in the oven until the pieces are very golden and crispy, tossing halfway, 8 to 12 minutes. Set the baking sheet aside to cool.
- To prepare the salad: Make the salad dressing as directed and set aside. In a large serving bowl, combine the chopped lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, radish, mint, optional parsley and feta, and toasted pita.
- Wait until you're ready to serve to drizzle up to 1/2 cup dressing over the salad. Gently toss until all of the ingredients are lightly coated in dressing. Serve promptly, and sprinkle individual servings generously with sumac.
- This salad is best consumed soon after making, since the dressing will wilt the lettuce and soften the pita with time. If you intend to have leftovers, store the salad separately from the dressing, and toss individual salads before serving. The salad will keep this way, covered and refrigerated, for up to 4 days.
