Cooking Steps

Steam the corn
1

• Cut corn cob in half. • Transfer corn to a large microwave-safe plate. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave corn on high, until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Drain any excess liquid, then season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.

Cook the beef
2

• Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • Cook beef strips, tossing, in batches until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. • Remove pan from heat and add BBQ sauce and a splash of water, tossing until combined. Season with to taste. TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.

Toast the pita pockets & toss the salad
3

• Microwave pita bread on a plate for 1 minute, until warmed through. Halve pita bread and fill with BBQ beef and Cheddar cheese. • Heat pita bread in a sandwich press for 2-3 minutes, until cheese is melted. • While pita pockets are toasting, thinly slice cucumber into rounds. • In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, mixed salad leaves, a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.

Finish & serve
4

• Divide corn cob, cheesy BBQ beef pita pockets and cucumber salad between plates. • Drizzle ranch dressing over corn. Enjoy!
