Method

Fill each pita with a generous amount of shredded lettuce, followed by the sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.
Drizzle with tzatziki sauce and a little olive oil. If desired, garnish with fresh parsley.
Wrap the pita around the filling, and your delicious gyros are ready to enjoy!

Notes

For a spicier kick, consider adding sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the gyros. Feel free to customize the toppings based on your preferences—avocado, olives, or roasted red peppers would also be great additions! Leftover chicken can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and can be used in salads or wraps.
