Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki

This Recipe is the best one we've found for Souvlaki-Style Chick.   







Ingredients:
 
4 Cloves Garlic, smashed
Juice of 1 Lemon
2 teaspoons Red Wine Vinegar
2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 heaping tablespoons Plain or Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon Dried Oregano
1 1/4 lbs Chicken Pieces (I used boneless, skinless breasts)
Salt and Pepper
Tzatziki (Link)
Sliced Tomatoes
Sliced Onions (omitted as I don’t like raw onions)
Pita Bread

Preparation:

Whisk together the garlic, lemon juice, vinegar, oil, yogurt, and oregano in a bowl. Add the chicken and rub the marinade in. Cover and refrigerate for about an hour.
Preheat the grill to medium heat (we use broiler but you can also use pan on the stove).  Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides, and then grill until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side, depending  what size/type chicken you are using. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
Meanwhile, heat your pitas in a fry pan, in the toaster or spray with a bit of oil and place right on a gas burner. Top the pita with the chicken, tzatziki, tomatoes, onions. Roll up and eat!
