Gyros Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Meat

    In a bowl, combine the sliced lamb and beef with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and oregano. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Meat

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated meat and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and nicely browned.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the meat is cooking, prepare the toppings by dicing the tomato and thinly slicing the onion.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Gyros

    Warm the pita bread slightly. On each pita, layer the cooked meat, diced tomatoes, sliced onions, and a generous dollop of tzatziki sauce.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Fold the pita over the fillings and serve immediately with extra tzatziki on the side if desired.
