Grilled Greek Chicken Gyros
Delicious and flavorful grilled Greek chicken wrapped in warm pita bread with tzatziki sauce, lettuce, tomato, and onion.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tbsp Greek seasoning blend
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup dill chopped fresh
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 pita bread
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup red onion sliced
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, Greek seasoning blend, olive oil, and salt and pepper. Mix well.
- Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and toss until they are well coated in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and juices run clear. Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.
- While the chicken is resting, make the tzatziki sauce by combining the Greek yogurt, chopped dill, lemon juice, and salt and pepper in a bowl. Mix well.
- To assemble the gyros, warm the pita breads on the grill or stovetop. Spread a generous amount of tzatziki sauce on each pita. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced red onion, and grilled chicken strips.
- Fold the pita in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious homemade Greek chicken gyros!
