Instructions
-
Prepare the Chicken: If using leftover or pre-cooked chicken, slice it thinly. If not, grill or sauté the chicken until fully cooked and then slice it into strips.
-
Prepare the Pita: Take a pita and fill it with a generous amount of shredded lettuce.
-
Assemble the Gyro: Layer the sliced chicken on top of the lettuce, followed by halved cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.
-
Add Toppings: Drizzle with tzatziki sauce and a little olive oil to enhance the flavor.
-
Garnish: Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley for extra color and flavor.
-
Wrap the Gyro: Fold the pita like a sandwich, wrap, and serve!
Notes
Add Some Heat: For a spicy twist, add sliced jalapeños or sprinkle red pepper flakes inside the gyro.
Veggie Lovers: Add extra veggies like cucumbers, bell peppers, or olives for a more personalized gyro.
Low-Carb Option: Serve the chicken and toppings in a lettuce wrap instead of pita for a low-carb alternative.
