You can eat gyros with French fries, wrapped in a pita bread, but I prefer it with tomato bulgur.
For vegetarian gyros, use oyster mushrooms or firm tofu (skip the time to marinate and reduce the cooking time to 2-3 minutes).
Enjoy!
gyros
4 portions
Ingredients
700g skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
2 tbsp dry thyme
2 tbsp dry oregano
1 tbsp ground cumin
2 tbsp sweet paprika
5 grated garlic cloves
Juice of half lemon
1 tsp salt
50ml olive oil
Extra 2 tbsp olive oil
To serve: bulgur in a tomato sauce, tzatziki
Method
Mix the chicken with all ingredients, but not the extra 2 tbsp of olive oil. Leave in the fridge overnight or, if you don’t have time, at least 1h to marinate.
Heat a pan on high temperature, add the extra 2 tbsp of olive oil and stir fry the meat. It should be done in 5 minutes.
Eat with tomato bulgur (see the recipe here), tzatziki (see the recipe here), and chargrilled or pickled chili. I also like to add slices of onions sprinkled on top with sumac.
