This is real-deal, homemade gyros—no bottled marinades, no shortcuts. Everything is made from wholefood ingredients, from the spice-packed chicken to the crispy double-fried chips. If you can, marinate the chicken overnight for the best flavour. Serve it all wrapped in soft, warm sourdough flatbreads with fresh veggies. I also use this chicken marinade for any other wraps, bowls, etc - it is insanely tasty.

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Marinate the chicken in a large bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Greek yogurt, tomato paste, and vinegar. Add all the spices and stir until smooth. Cut the chicken thighs into cubes and cover evenly in the marinade, refrigerate for a few hours (overnight is best).
  2. Cook the chicken in a large pan over medium-high heat and add a little olive oil. About 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through.
  3. To make the Chips, cut the potatoes into thick fries and soak them in ice water for at least 30 minutes. Pat them completely dry. Heat oil in a deep pan on low/medium heat. Fry the potatoes for 5-6 minutes until pale yellow. Remove and drain. Increase the heat to medium/high and fry again until deep golden and crispy. Drain and season with salt immediately.
  4. Assemble the Gyros with warm the sourdough flatbreads. Layer on hummus, chicken, fresh veggies, and crispy chips. Wrap it up and heap a spoonful of tzatziki – authentic like they serve in Greece.

Notes

These recipes are not mine but I highly recommend! Tzatziki - Love and Lemons Hummus - Tzafi Hotz Sourdough Flatbreads - The Pantry Mama (they are small - double the size of the dough balls for each flatbread)
