Greek Chicken Gyros

Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken strips
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp dried basil
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp zatar seasoning
  • 2 tsp dried dill
  • 1 package fresh dill
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 yellow bell pepper
  • 1/2 red onion
  • tzatziki sauce (recipe linked above)
  • naan bread

Instructions

  • Prep the tzatziki sauce the night before (recipe linked above)
  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Once preheated, wrap the naan bread in aluminum foil and place in the oven to warm
  • Put the chicken strips in a bowl and season with the olive oil, 1/2 of the dried basil, 1/2 of the oregano, zatar seasoning, and dried dill. Set aside
  • Slice both the bell peppers and the onion into long thin strips (pictured above) and set aside
  • Heat a skillet on medium high and add a drizzle of oil. Once your pan is hot, add the seasoned chicken and cook for around 3-5 minutes on each side or until done all the way through
  • Once all the chicken is done, remove and place on a clean plate.
  • Immediately add the peppers and onion to the hot skillet the chicken was just cooked in. Season with the remaining basil and oregano and salt and pepper to taste. Cook until desired tenderness, I like mine more crisp, so I don't cook them for longer than around 4-5 minutes. During the last 1 minute of cooking, add in a dash of fresh dill.
  • Remove the naan from the oven. Assemble the gyros by adding the tzatziki sauce, chicken, peppers and onion. Top with more fresh dill, tomatoes, and whatever else you desire- enjoy!
