Instructions
- 1
In a bowl, combine minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, paprika, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Whisk to form a marinade.
- 2
Add chicken breasts to the marinade, coating them well. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight in the refrigerator for deeper flavor).
- 3
Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through and juices run clear.
- 4
While the chicken cooks, mix the Greek yogurt and dill in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 5
Once the chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice it thinly.
- 6
Warm the pita bread in a dry skillet or microwave.
- 7
To assemble, spread a layer of the yogurt dill sauce on the pita, add sliced chicken, lettuce, diced tomato, and cucumber. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and add a sprinkle of salt if desired.
- 8
Wrap the pita around the filling, and enjoy your delicious chicken gyros!
