Gyros Sandwich Recipe

Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Marinate the Pork

   In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the pork shoulder, ensuring it's well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

2. 2

   Cook the Pork

   Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). Remove the pork from the marinade and cook for about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked through and has a nice char. Let it rest before slicing.

3. 3

   Prepare Tzatziki Sauce

   Grate the cucumber and squeeze out excess moisture. In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

4. 4

   Assemble the Sandwich

   Slice the cooked pork thinly. Warm the pita bread. Layer sliced pork, tzatziki sauce, sliced tomatoes, red onion rings, and any extra toppings in the pita.

5. 5

   Serve

   Wrap the pita tightly and serve immediately with a side of fries or a Greek salad.
