  • To prepare the Greek yogurt sauce, add all of the ingredients through the crushed red pepper to the food processor. Pulse until smooth, or leave a little chunky if desired. Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to use.
  • Place the flank steak in large shallow dish. In a medium bowl, whisk together the rest of the ingredients for the flank steak: extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, garlic, dill, honey, salt, and black pepper. Pour the marinade over the steak, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Once the flank steak has marinated, preheat the grill over medium-high heat. Grill the steak for about 4 minutes on each side or until it is done to your liking. Remove from heat and set aside to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.
  • To assemble your pita wraps, spread a thin layer of hummus on the inside of the pita pockets. Fill the pita pockets with a combination of grilled flank steak, grape tomatoes, cucumbers, kalamata olives, and roasted red peppers. Drizzle the pita pockets with Greek yogurt sauce and sprinkle with feta cheese and fresh dill.
