HOMEMADE CHICKEN GYRO RECIPE

INGREDIENTS
  For the chicken marinade:

  • 1 lb. chicken breast sliced into ½-inch strips
  • 3 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp. red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp. paprika
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper

For the Tzatziki Sauce:

  • 1 medium cucumber
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp. chopped fresh dill
  • 1 medium clove garlic pressed or minced
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For the Gyro:

  • Pita bread
  • Shredded iceberg lettuce
  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Sliced cucumbers
  • Sliced onion
  • Feta cheese

INSTRUCTIONS



  1. Marinate the chicken. Place the chicken in a medium bowl and add all of the marinade ingredients. Mix it well, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  2. Make the tzatziki. Grate the cucumber and squeeze the excess liquid out with your hands. Discard the liquid. Place the cucumber in a mixing bowl with the rest of the tzatziki ingredients and mix well.
  3. Cook the chicken. Heat a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken slices and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Slice the chicken into thin strips.
  4. Make the Gyro! Warm the pita bread (in the oven or microwave). Add a bit of shredded lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, and chicken on top. Drizzle with a generous amount of tzatziki and feta cheese, if desired. Fold the gyro* in half and serve.
