Instructions
Yogurt Marinated Chicken
- In a bowl, whisk together the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, red wine vinegar, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Place the chicken breasts in the marinade (can transfer to a ziplock bag), and marinate for at least an hour, preferably overnight.
- Once marinated, preheat your grill to 500 degrees. Grill the chicken on each side for 6-7 minutes, until cooked through and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Slice the chicken.
Tzatziki Sauce
- In a bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, sour cream, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, grated cucumber, dill, garlic, salt and white pepper. Refrigerate and let the flavors blend until ready to serve.
Tomato and Cucumber Salad
- In a bowl, mix together the diced tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, oregano, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Assembly
- Place the chicken on a warmed piece of pita bread, top with tzatziki sauce, sprinkle on the tomato and cucumber salad. Roll it up, and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Our wine choice: Semeli 2015 Feast Moschofilero (Peloponnese). A Greek white (because what could pair better!) bursting with lemon and citrus, this crisp wine it a great pairing for these gyros. Cheers!
