Gyros recipe is a traditional Greek dish, consisting of thinly sliced meat, usually chicken or pork, wrapped in thin round bread (gyros pita). To enrich the taste of the meat, we will marinate it in spices. In addition to meat, the main ingredients are French fries, tomatoes, lettuce, onions, and tzatziki sauce. The word gyros (γύρος) in literal translation means "turning", referring to the way this dish is prepared, specifically roasting on a vertical skewer.
Although gyros is now a symbol of Greek cuisine, its roots trace back to Anatolia, part of present-day Turkey. Recipe originated as a variation of Turkish kebab, becoming popular in Greece during the 20th century, as well as in certain parts of America.
In a bowl, mix olive oil, finely grated garlic, ground coriander, paprika, oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
Add thinly sliced chicken meat, mix well, and let it marinate.
Mix all the ingredients for the dough to make a softer dough that doesn't stick, and let it rise (about 45 minutes).
Divide the dough into four balls and roll each into a flatbread about 5 mm thick.
Heat a pan and cook the flatbreads for 2 - 3 minutes on each side. Set aside the cooked flatbreads and cover them to keep them soft and warm.
Finely grate and drain excess liquid from the cucumber. Add grated garlic, Greek yogurt, olive oil, and a little salt. Mix well and set aside.
Heat a little oil in a pan and add the meat. Fry it for a minute or two on each side.
Fry the French fries.
Spread tzatziki sauce on the tortilla, place chicken meat in the middle, add tomato slices and French fries on top of the meat, then fold it in half and wrap it halfway with foil to secure it.
