Wash and dry all produce. Dice @tomato{1%unit} into ½-inch pieces. Trim and halve @mini cucumber{1%unit} lengthwise; slice into ½-inch-thick half-moons. Pick and finely chop fronds from @dill{1%bunch}. In a #medium bowl{}, combine tomato and cucumbers; season with salt and pepper. Set aside, stirring occasionally.

In a #small pot{}, combine @israeli couscous{¾%cup}, @chicken stock concentrate{1%tbsp}, ¾ cup water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until tender ~{7%minutes}. Keep covered off heat until ready to use.

While couscous cooks, pat @ranch steak{12%oz} dry with a #paper towel{} and season with half the @garlic powder{1%tsp}, salt, and pepper. Heat a drizzle of @cooking oil{1%tbsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add steak; cook to desired doneness ~{4%minutes} per side. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.

While steak cooks, pour liquid from tomato and cucumber salad into a #small bowl{}. Set salad aside. To bowl with liquid, add @crema{2%tbsp}, half the dill, remaining garlic powder, and a drizzle of @olive oil{2%tbsp}; stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper if desired.

Toast @pitas{2%unit} until softened and warmed through; cut into quarters. Fluff couscous with a fork; stir in a drizzle of olive oil and as much remaining dill as you like. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Thinly slice steak against the grain. Divide couscous between shallow bowls. Top with tomato and cucumber salad, steak, and dill crema; serve with pita wedges alongside.
