Return the beef to the skillet. Add soy sauce, sugar, and pepper.

Stir well to combine, allowing the sugar to dissolve and the sauce to thicken slightly, about 2 minutes.

Warm the pocket bread rounds according to package instructions or in a toaster oven.

Spoon the beef and onion mixture into the pockets, dividing evenly among the four servings.
