Step 1
Pat beef slices dry with paper towels. Toss with sumac, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 3
Working in batches to avoid crowding, sear beef 60-90 seconds per side until edges crisp and char slightly.
Step 4
Stir yogurt with lemon juice and a pinch of salt until pourable. Warm pita briefly in a dry skillet or over a flame.
Step 5
Pile seared beef into warm pita. Drizzle with lemon-yogurt sauce and top with tomato, cucumber, and red onion if desired.
