  • 1 medium eggplant, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
  • 1 medium white onion, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 4 flatbreads (such as naan, pita bread, etc), warmed

  • 1 teaspoon ground allspice

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Safe Handling Tips:

  • Wash hands with soap and water before cooking and always after touching raw meat.

  • Separate raw meat from other foods.
  • Wash all cutting boards, utensils, and dishes after touching raw meat.
  • Do not reuse marinades used on raw foods.
  • Wash all produce prior to use.
  • Cook beef until temperature reaches 145°F for medium rare steaks and roasts 160°F for ground beef.
  • Refrigerate food promptly.

Cooking:

1. Combine Rub ingredients. Press 2 tablespoons evenly onto beef steak; set aside. Brush vegetables with oil and sprinkle evenly with remaining rub.

2. Place steak in center of grid over medium, ash-covered coals; arrange eggplant and onion around steak. Grill steak, covered, 11 to 15 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 13 to 16 minutes) for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness, turning occasionally. Grill eggplant 6 to 8 minutes; onions 12 to 15 minutes (gas grill times remain the same) or until tender, turning occasionally.

3. Cut vegetables into bite-size pieces. Carve steak into slices; then cut slices crosswise in half. Arrange beef and vegetables on serving plates. Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Evenly divide beef and vegetables among flatbreads; garnish with Toppings, as desired.

Toppings: Plain Greek yogurt, raisins, chopped toasted almonds or pistachios, chopped fresh parsley (optional).
