Greek Chicken Gyro Recipe
  1. Pat dry the chicken thighs and set aside.

  2. In a large bowl, mix the chicken thighs with Greek yogurt, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, pepper, oregano, and minced garlic. Make sure they are covered with yogurt marinade.

  3. Cover and marinate for one hour up to 6 hours in the fridge.

  4. Once the chicken is marinated, take the bowl out of the fridge and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

  5. Brush the pan with 1 tablespoon olive oil and thread marinated chicken thighs onto a skewer pan.

  6. Roast for 90 minutes until the chicken is golden and cooked.

  7. Once done, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly for assembly.

  8. Warm the pita and spread a generous layer of homemade tzatziki sauce.

  9. Add the chicken, tomatoes, parsley, and sliced onion. Finally, drizzle with some lemon juice and serve immediately.
