Instructions

Marinating the chicken:
Mix the chicken strips with olive oil, garlic, oregano, paprika, thyme, salt and pepper. Leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
How to cook the chicken:
Fry the chicken strips in a non-stick pan until golden brown and cooked through (about 5–7 minutes).
Tzatziki sauce:
In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with the grated and drained cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, dill, salt and pepper. Leave the sauce in the fridge so that the flavours can mingle.
Assembling the gyros:
Warm the wraps a little. On each one, lay a few slices of cooked chicken, tomato slices, onion rings and lettuce leaves. Add 1-2 tablespoons of tzatziki sauce and drizzle with a little lemon juice. Wrap up and enjoy!
