Classic Gyro Plate Recipe

Prepare the Meat

In a large bowl, mix the lamb and beef together. Add olive oil, onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well and marinate for at least 1 hour.

Cook the Rice

In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add rice and a pinch of salt, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until rice is cooked and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

Cook the Meat

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated meat for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing thinly.

Prepare the Salad

In a bowl, combine chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced cucumber, feta cheese, lemon juice, and parsley. Toss to mix well.

Assemble the Plate

On a plate, serve a generous portion of rice topped with the sliced meat. Add a side of the house salad.
