Step 1

Season the beef steak with salt, black pepper, and oregano on both sides.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the seasoned beef steak to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness is reached.

Step 4

Remove the steak from the skillet and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

While the beef rests, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and a finely minced garlic clove in a small bowl.

Step 6

Season the yogurt sauce with a pinch of salt and set aside.

Step 7

Toast the whole grain bread slices either in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.

Step 8

Wash and pat dry the lettuce leaves, slice the tomato and cucumber thinly, and cut the red onion into thin rings.

Step 9

Assemble the sandwich by spreading a layer of yogurt sauce on one side of each toast slice.

Step 10

Place a lettuce leaf on three of the toast slices, followed by a few slices of beef, a layer of tomato, cucumber, and onion.

Step 11

Add extra flavor by crumbling feta cheese over the veggie and beef layers.

Step 12

Top each stack with another slice of toasted bread, yogurt sauce side down.

Step 13

Use a sharp knife to cut each sandwich diagonally and serve immediately.
