Introduction
A delicious Mediterranean-inspired meal featuring juicy, spiced chicken gyros wrapped in soft, homemade flatbread. Served with a refreshing cucumber tzatziki sauce, fresh tomatoes, red onions, and crumbled feta cheese.
Step 1
Prepare the chicken breasts by slicing them into thin strips on a clean cutting board.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine the sliced chicken, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, black pepper, lemon zest, lemon juice, and olive oil. Mix thoroughly, cover with cling wrap, and marinate for 1 hour.
Step 3
Grate half a cucumber into a bowl, then squeeze out as much moisture as possible using your hands.
Step 4
Prepare the Tzatziki sauce by combining the squeezed cucumber, chopped dill, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and Greek yogurt. Mix well and set aside in the fridge.
Step 5
Make the flatbread dough by mixing self-raising flour, a pinch of salt, olive oil, and Greek yogurt. Knead the dough in the bowl for about 2 minutes, cover with cling wrap, and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Always squeeze out the excess moisture from the grated cucumber to prevent the Tzatziki sauce from becoming watery.
Keep cooked flatbreads wrapped in a clean tea towel to steam slightly, which makes them soft and pliable for wrapping.
Do not use excessively high heat when grilling the chicken to ensure it cooks evenly without burning the spices.
Marinating the chicken for at least an hour (or even overnight) significantly enhances the depth of flavor.
