    Heat the pita bread in a skillet over medium heat for about 1 minute on each side until warm and slightly toasted.

    Assemble the Gyro

    On each warmed pita, layer the meat (or grilled chicken), followed by lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced onion, and crumbled feta cheese.

  4. 4

    Add Tzatziki

    Drizzle tzatziki sauce over the top of the assembled gyro.

  5. 5
