Here is the chicken gyros
Ingredients
¼ cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 teaspoon minced garlic, divided
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1/2 cup chopped peeled cucumber
1/3 cup plain yogurt
1/4 teaspoon dill weed
2 whole pita breads
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
Directions
- In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the lemon
juice, oil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic, mustard and oregano; add chicken. Seal
bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 1 hour. In a small bowl,
combine the cucumber, yogurt, dill and remaining garlic; cover and refrigerate
until serving.
- Drain and discard marinade. In a large nonstick
skillet, saute the chicken for 7-8 minutes or until juices run clear.
Spoon onto each pita bread. Top with yogurt mixture and onion; I also add sliced tomatoes on top fold in
half. Yield: 2 servings.
That looks so yummy Sarah! I've been wanting to try making gyros on my own- now I have a recipe to try. What recipe do you use for your green chili pork? I tried a recipe about a month ago and it was a disaster!
ReplyDeleteHere is the recipe I use for Green Chili that I love
ReplyDelete1/2- 1 lb pork roast or chops ( I use leftover meat)
10 1/2 oz chicken broth
1 onion finely chopped
1/4 to 1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 7 oz can green chilies diced
1/4 jalapeno finely chopped
1 tsp salt
2 TBS flour dissolved in water
Simmer pork in broth on low for 10 minutes. Add all other ingredients except flour and simmer 45 minutes. Thicken with flour so it is like a thick soup. Spoon about 1/4 cup into the center of a flour tortilla. Roll up and top with more green chili. Sprinkle with cheese lettuce and tomatoes. Top with sour cream if desired. It freezes really well
