Method

6 steps. Read it through before you start.

01
Get set
Take the chicken out of the fridge 15 minutes before cooking. Pat it dry with paper towels. Wash your hands, board and knife after handling raw chicken. Slice the breast into thin strips.
02
Marinate
Mix the marinade, coat the chicken and rest 30 minutes.
03
Make tzatziki
Stir the curd, cucumber, garlic, oil and salt. Chill.
04
Sear
Cook the chicken in a very hot pan in batches, 4 to 5 minutes. Cook until no pink remains and the juices run clear, or 74 °C at the thickest part if you use a thermometer.
05
Warm the pita
Warm the pita in a dry pan for 30 seconds each side.
06
Build
Spread tzatziki on the pita. Add chicken, tomato and onion. Fold and serve.

Questions

Is this the same as souvlaki?+

Gyros is sliced meat in a wrap. Souvlaki is skewered. The flavours are similar.

Can I grill it?+

Yes. Grill whole breasts for 6 to 7 minutes per side, rest, then slice.
