SPICY BEEF PITAS

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your Thai beef pitas. Look for well-marbled flank steak, crisp vegetables, and aromatic herbs.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and lemongrass will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
- Cook the steak properly: Flank steak is a relatively thin cut of meat, so it's important to cook it quickly over high heat. This will help to keep it tender and juicy.
- Assemble the pitas: Once the steak is cooked, assemble the pitas by filling them with steak, vegetables, herbs, and sauce. Be sure to wrap the pitas tightly so that they don't fall apart.
- Serve immediately: Thai beef pitas are best served immediately after they are assembled. This will ensure that the pitas are warm and the flavors are at their peak.

Thai beef pitas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With their bold flavors and fresh ingredients, these pitas are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting meal, give Thai beef pitas a try!
