Gyros Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

  3. 3

    Make Tzatziki Sauce

    In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chopped dill, salt, and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Gyros

    Warm the pita bread on the grill or in a skillet. Layer the sliced chicken, diced tomato, cucumber, and red onion on the pita. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce and fold the pita over.

  5. 5

    Serve

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