Gyros

Again, this recipe came from this site. The chicken was very yummy chicken. This does take quite a bit of time, but I think it's worth it. It is heavy on lemon though, so if you don't like lemon, you might not like this meal.

Chicken Gyros

4 cloves garlic, smashed

Juice of 1 lemon

2 tsp red wine vinegar

2 TBSP extra virgin olive oil

2 heaping TBSP plain yogurt (I used sour cream)

1 TBSP dried oregano

salt and pepper

1 1/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed

Combine the garlic, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, olive oil, yogurt, oregano, and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl (I doubled the marinade, and I think it was just right for this amount of chicken). Whisk together until mixed well. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and mix well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for about 1 hour.

Cook the chicken as desired, either in the skillet or with the broiler (I broiled them, and I thought it worked perfectly). Once the chicken is completely cooked through, transfer to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes.

Heat pitas, top with chicken, tzatziki sauce, diced tomatoes and sliced onions. Serve immediately.
