Introduction
These Greek-style chicken gyro bowls feature tender, juicy boneless chicken thighs marinated in a fragrant blend of lemon, garlic, and Mediterranean spices. Broiled to smoky, crispy-edged perfection and served over a crisp salad with crumbled feta and creamy tzatziki, this dish makes a vibrant, low-carb meal.
Step 1
Combine the chicken thighs in a large bowl with the olive oil, lemon juice, grated garlic, and the spice mixture (oregano, cumin, paprika, coriander, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes).
Step 2
Mix everything thoroughly with tongs to ensure each piece of chicken is evenly coated in the marinade.
Step 3
Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for the deepest flavor development.
Step 4
Place a wire cooling rack over a baking sheet and arrange the marinated chicken thighs on the rack in a single layer.
Step 5
Place the baking sheet in the oven on the top rack under the broiler. Broil on high for 18 to 20 minutes, flipping the chicken halfway through.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Using boneless, skinless chicken thighs is highly recommended because they stay juicy and tender during the broiling process.
Cooking the chicken on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet allows the juices to drip away, which helps the chicken develop crispy, caramelized edges under the broiler.
Always let the cooked chicken rest for about 10 minutes before slicing to prevent the savory juices from running out.
