Meat

Vegetables

Tzatziki Sauce

Pita Bread

Method

Prepare Meat

  1. 1

    Marinate the Meat

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the meat of your choice and coat it well with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meat

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated meat for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and nicely browned. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

Prepare Vegetables

  1. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    Dice the fresh tomatoes and sweet bell pepper into small pieces. Thinly slice the red onion. Set aside for assembly.

Make Tzatziki Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Cucumber

    Grate the cucumber and gently squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.

  2. 5

    Mix the Tzatziki

    In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, dill, and salt. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Assemble Gyros

  1. 6

    Fill Pita Bread

    Warm the pita bread slightly if desired. Layer the sliced meat, chopped vegetables, and a generous amount of tzatziki sauce inside each pita.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve the gyros immediately, with extra tzatziki on the side if desired.
