Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into 1-inch strips
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
For the Tzatziki
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup cucumber grated and squeezed dry
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
For Serving
  • 4 pita breads
  • 1/2 cup red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/2 cup romaine lettuce shredded

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, combine chicken strips with olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  2. While the chicken marinates, prepare the tzatziki. In a separate bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, fresh dill, lemon juice, and salt. Stir until well combined and refrigerate until serving.
  3. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and lightly browned.
  4. Warm the pita breads according to package instructions, either in a dry skillet, microwave, or oven.
  5. To assemble, spread a generous amount of tzatziki on each warm pita. Top with cooked chicken, sliced red onion, cherry tomatoes, and shredded romaine lettuce. Fold or roll the pita to create a wrap.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Chicken Gyro Wraps!

Notes

For extra flavor, you can marinate the chicken overnight. If you don't have fresh dill, dried dill can be used, but use half the amount. Don't skip squeezing the water out of the grated cucumber for the tzatziki; this prevents it from becoming watery.
