Chicken Gyros


Hello Everyone!
 
My favorite food when we go to the Fair is Chicken Gyros!! So I looked for a Homemade recipe and found one! It tastes soooooo good! :)
 
I used 3 chicken breasts...boiled them for 15 min. then chopped them up into little pieces.
 
 
Here's the chopped chicken
Mixed the chicken with garlic, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, olive oil, greek yogurt, oregano, salt and pepper. Refridgerate 1 hour.
For the sauce I mixed greek yogurt, 1 cucumber, garlic, white wine vinegar, lemon juice salt and pepper and drizzled with Olive Oil. Refridgerate 30 min.
 
 
Then I heated up the sauce just to luke warm...You can also leave cold if you would like
Fry up the chicken mixture
And its ready to eat! You can use tortillas or pitas top with cheese, chicken mixture and sauce!! yummmy!
 
Chicken Mixture:
*2 Tablespoons Garlic cloves
*2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
*2 Teaspoons Red Wine Vinegar
*2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
*2 Tablespoons "heaping" Plain Greek Yogurt
*1 Tablespoon Dill
*1 1/4 lb. Chicken breasts...(For 2 of us I just used 2 chicken breasts)
