Servings 4 people
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

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!

    Looks good but not a fan of Greek food 🤷‍♂️.

    Too much garlic, maybe? My breath wasn’t great after! 😂

      Haha, yeah! Garlic can do that! But it’s so worth it for the flavor, right?

    I tried this and the chicken got burnt on the grill 😩. Maybe cool the grill?

    Good but why do you put dill in yogurt? I’m not a fan of herbs.

    Not sure about the seasoning… the chicken tasted too bland for me.

      Maybe try marinating the chicken longer? I found it really flavorful when I let it sit overnight.

    Super easy to follow! I had to improvise with spaghetti because I didn’t have pita. Oops!
