Chicken Gyros

A delicious, classic Greek street food recipe made at home. Tender chicken thighs are marinated in a beautifully spiced yogurt mixture, stacked vertically on a homemade skewer rotisserie, roasted until charred and juicy, and then wrapped in warm flatbread with fresh tzatziki sauce, tomatoes, and red onion. Chef's tips: (1) Marinating the chicken thighs overnight will significantly improve the flavor depth and tenderness of the meat. (2) Squeezing out the liquid from the grated cucumber is crucial to ensure the tzatziki sauce does not become too watery. (3) Chicken thighs are highly recommended over chicken breasts as they contain more fat, ensuring the vertical spit stays juicy during the long bake. (4) Using a deep cake tin and placing oven-safe mugs or ramekins around the onion base helps prevent the chicken tower from leaning or falling over while roasting.
