Chicken Gyros
These Greek Chicken Gyros are what weeknight dreams are made of, juicy, yogurt-marinated chicken loaded into warm pita with creamy tzatziki, crisp onions, and tomatoes. It’s fresh, flavorful, and way easier than it looks. No plane ticket required.
Ingredients
Instructions
Add the chicken and marinade ingredients to a large freezer bag. Squeeze to mix all the ingredients around and transfer the bag to the fridge. Marinate for 1-4 hours.
Preheat the oven to 425℉. Equip a baking sheet with a roasting rack. Line the chicken on the rack and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges begin to crisp. You can turn on the broiler for 2-3 minutes if you'd like more crispiness without drying the chicken out.
Roughly chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Warm the pitas for 15-20 seconds in the microwave or toast them individually in a dry skillet over medium-high heat. Spoon some of the chicken into the pita, then top with tzatziki, onion, and tomatoes.
