Mise en place
Heat the BBQ on high, making sure to oil the grill first. Separate the lettuce leaves; roughly chop the leaves. Peel and cut the onion into ½ inch rounds. Thinly slice the tomatoes; halve. Roughly chop the roasted pepper. Pick the mint leaves off the stems; roughly chop the leaves.
Grill the patties & onion
Drizzle the onion with oil; season with ½ the spices and S&P. Drizzle the patties with oil; season with the remaining spices. Add the patties and onion to the BBQ and grill, 3 to 5 min. per side, until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a cutting board. Once cool enough, cut the patties into ½ inch strips.
Grill the pita
Add the pita to the BBQ and grill, 30 sec. to 1 min., until just warmed through.
Make the salad
In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, mint, roasted pepper and 3 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions). Add the lettuce, tomatoes and S&P.
Plate your dish
