Greek Chicken Gyro
Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
4 pita bread rounds
Tzatziki sauce
Sliced tomatoes
Sliced red onions
Shredded lettuce
Crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Add the thinly sliced chicken breast to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken slices for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
Warm the pita bread rounds in the oven or on the stovetop.
To assemble the gyros, spread a generous amount of tzatziki sauce over each warmed pita bread round. Top with cooked chicken slices, sliced tomatoes, sliced red onions, shredded lettuce, and crumbled feta cheese if desired.
Fold the pita bread over the filling to form a wrap or roll, and serve immediately.
Enjoy the delicious flavors of Greek chicken gyro with your favorite sides!
