Here's a recipe that has a definite Middle Eastern influence. Tahini is a paste made from sesame seeds that is common in the cuisine of the region; pita flat bread and yogurt are also ingredients typical of many Middle Eastern countries. It's important to use the kind of pita bread that can be slit open and filled; some types - including those available at Middle Eastern markets - do not open. This recipe is quick to prepare once you have made the dry rub; the beef does not need to be marinated, and the tenderloin tips cook in minutes. Sauté the meat just before serving as the tenderloin tips will toughen if cooked in advance and reheated later.
