Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Rice
Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine the rice with 2 cups of water, a tablespoon of olive oil, and a teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.

Cook the Gyro Meat
In a skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add minced garlic, paprika, black pepper, and additional salt to taste. Stir in the gyro meat and cook until heated through and slightly crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
