Gyro Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and coat them well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and golden brown. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with a pinch of salt and any additional herbs you prefer.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Gyros

    Warm the pita bread slightly. Place sliced chicken on top, then add sliced tomatoes, red onions, cucumbers, and crumbled feta cheese. Drizzle the yogurt sauce on top.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the gyros immediately with extra yogurt sauce on the side.
