Chicken and Marinade

Method

Preparation and Assembly

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken thighs and coat them well in the marinade. 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 about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Wrap

    Warm the pita bread or wrap in a skillet for a minute on each side. Slice the cooked chicken into strips.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Gyro

    Place the sliced chicken on the warm pita bread or wrap. Add your choice of toppings such as lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, and tzatziki sauce. Roll or fold the wrap and serve immediately.
