Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 4 minutes

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large skinless chicken breast
rapeseed oil , for brushing
small garlic clove , crushed
½ tsp dried oregano
2 tbsp Greek yogurt
10 cm piece cucumber , grated, excess juice squeezed out
2 tbsp chopped mint , plus a few leaves to serve
2 wholemeal pitta breads
2 red or yellow tomatoes , sliced
1 red pepper from a jar (not in oil), deseeded and sliced

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken breast in half lengthways, then cover with cling film and bash with a rolling pin to flatten it. Brush with some oil, then cover with the garlic, oregano and some pepper. Heat a non-stick frying pan and cook the chicken for a few mins each side. Meanwhile, mix the yogurt, cucumber and mint to make tzatziki.

GROUND BEEF GYROS RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT



Ground Beef Gyros Recipe: How to Make It image

If your family likes gyros as much as mine, they'll love this easy version that's made with ground beef instead of lamb. I found the recipe in a newspaper and adapted it to fit our tastes. They're very much like the ones served at a local restaurant. A cucumber yogurt sauce adds an authentic finishing touch. —Ruth Stahl, Shepherd, Montana

PORK GYROS RECIPE - NYT COOKING - RECIPES AND COOKING ...
This lemon-bright and paprika-dusted pita filling is based on memories of the gyros served at Kalimera Souvlaki Art in Melbourne, Australia, one of the best Greek restaurants in a city that supports a great number of them. I've cooked it here in the oven, but the preparation would take well to the grill. However you prepare it, serve the crisped meat with warm pita, cucumbers, tomatoes and onion, tzatziki sauce, hot sauce, French fries, mint leaves, really whatever you like.

  • Put the pork in the oven, and roast until it is browned, crisp at the edges and cooked through, about 30-40 minutes. Check the meat at around 20 minutes to see how much liquid is in the pan. If there is a lot, remove the pan, and pour off all but a few tablespoons. Remove the finished pork from the oven, allow to rest for a minute or two, then chop into bits. (To make the pork even crisper, set a large pan over high heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan, then the sliced pork, and sauté until everything curls tight in the heat.) Scatter the remaining paprika over the top of the meat, and serve with warm pita, sliced cucumbers and onions, tomato, tzatziki sauce, hot sauce, French fries, scattered mint leaves, ketchup, really whatever you like.
