Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts boneless & skinless
  • 3 bell peppers
  • 1 white onion
  • 3 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • Tztatziki Sauce

Rub

  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Combine all of the rub ingredients in a small bowl, and whisk together.
  • Prepare the chicken by cutting the skinless, boneless breasts into stripes and adding them to a bowl.
  • Drizzle the chicken with olive oil and the juice from one lemon. Next, add the spice rub over the chicken and toss until the chicken is fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Remove the chicken from the fridge and arrange it on a parchment lined baking sheet. Add the vegetables on either side of the chicken and drizzle them with olive oil, a sprinkle of oregano, salt and pepper.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast until vegetables are tender-crisp and the chicken is cooked through, about 20-25 minutes.
  • While the chicken is cooking, prepare the Tzatziki sauce.
  • Remove the chicken and vegetables from the oven and get ready to assemble the gyros.
  • On a skillet, griddle or over an open flame, char the pita bread until it begins to brown. This only takes a few seconds, be careful so that you don’t burn the pitas.
  • Transfer the chicken and vegetables to a serving dish.
  • Add a dollop of Tzatziki sauce to the bottom of the warm pita bread (it prevents it from spilling out of the top when you bite into the gyro) and add some chicken and vegetables. Top with feta cheese and kalamata olives.  Enjoy!
