Gyro Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    In a bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the meat and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meat

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated meat for about 8-10 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

  3. 3

    Make the Tzatziki Sauce

    In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with diced cucumber, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  4. 4

    Warm the Pita

    Warm the pita bread on the grill or in a skillet until slightly toasted.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Gyro

    On each pita, layer sliced meat, red onions, diced tomatoes, and tzatziki sauce. Serve immediately.
