→ To Serve
11 -
4 pita bread rounds
# Steps:
01 -
In a mixing bowl, stir olive oil, salt, pepper, oregano, and chopped garlic together. Toss in the chicken, making sure it's fully coated. Cover and chill for no less than 30 minutes.
02 -
Salt the grated cucumber and leave it for 10 minutes to draw out water. Squeeze it dry, then stir it into a bowl with yogurt, lemon juice, feta, and salt and pepper. Pop it in the fridge to keep cool.
03 -
Grill chicken over medium heat, letting each side cook for 6-7 minutes until the internal temp hits 165°F (75°C). Once done, let it sit before slicing.
04 -
Toss the pita rounds on the grill for a minute or so per side until toasty and warm.
05 -
Layer the chicken onto the warm pita, add your toppings, and spoon over the tzatziki.
06 -
Fold the pita over the filling and dig in! Serve with more tzatziki on the side if you want.
# Notes:
01 -
Let the chicken soak in the marinade for 2 hours or longer for deeper taste.
02 -
Fresh herbs like oregano make the flavors shine.
03 -
Serve warm—chilled dishes can't match the flavor of warm gyros.
04 -
If you like extras, pile on tomatoes, lettuce, or onion slices.
