    Instructions
     

    Gyros

    • Wash the chicken breast fillets, pat dry with kitchen paper. Take a bowl and cut the fillets into strips, place inside. Then add the individual spices to taste, add olive oil and mix once. Cut half the onion into strips and add them as well and set aside to infuse.

    tzatziki

    • Wash half of the cucumber and coarsely grate it over a grater, place in a bowl. Add the garlic clove press. Add measured yoghurt, add olive oil, stir. Season with salt and gourmet pepper to taste, season to taste. Cover and let it flow through.

    salad

    • Take a bowl and halve and quarter the small tomatoes. Cut open half a cucumber, scrape out the seeds with a spoon and cut into thin strips. Peel the other half onion and cut into strips, add.
    • Put everything together in the bowl. Make a marinade out of lemon juice, olive oil and sugar, mix in and set aside.

    Fry gyros

    • Take a pan, add olive oil and heat. Take the gyros out of the bowl, add to the pan and fry for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. Then pull the pan off the stove, put a lid on it and let it stand for about 3 minutes.

    Serving

    • When everything is ready, take a large flat plate and place the homemade gyros on it. Serve tzatziki in an extra bowl. Add the salad and you're done. I also served rice with it.
