Char sausage.Cook sliced sausage in 1 Tbsp oil over medium-high 5–7 minutes. Remove.
Char vegetables.Add oil, onion, peppers, garlic powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook 8–10 minutes.
Make sauce.Whisk sauce ingredients and keep chilled.
Warm pitas.Toast in a dry skillet 30–60 seconds per side.
Assemble.Add sauce, sausage, vegetables, cucumber, feta, herbs, and more sauce.
