Chicken Gyros is one of the most well liked of recent trending meals on earth. It’s simple, it is fast, it tastes delicious. It is enjoyed by millions every day. They are nice and they look fantastic. Chicken Gyros is something which I have loved my whole life.
To begin with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can have chicken gyros using 12 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Chicken Gyros:
- Make ready 500 g chicken thigh fillets (deboned)
- Make ready 1 cup (250 ml) Greek or natural yoghurt
- Get 25 ml lemon juice
- Take 50 ml olive oil
- Make ready 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper(less if you don’t want it too spicy)
- Make ready 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Take 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- Prepare 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Take 2-3 cloves crushed garlic

- Prepare 1 teaspoon paprika
- Prepare Oven tray with 1/2 large onion and wooden skewer- this is the frame that supports the chicken thighs during cooking
Instructions to make Chicken Gyros:
- Make the marinade by combining all ingredients except chicken, onion/skewer.
- Add flattened chicken thighs - I used the palm of my hand to gently flatten so that all the pieces were about the same thickness
- Marinade for a minimum of 2 -4 hours
- Assemble marinated chicken thighs on the skewer - add at right angles to each other to even out the gyros stack.
- Bake in oven at 200 degrees centigrade for 1 hour 20 minutes or until cooked through. The outside will get a little burnt but don’t worry - important to check the inside is cooked.
- Remove from oven, cool slightly and then slice. Serve with salad and pita bread. A nice side dish is some yoghurt with mint (in winter I substitute a teaspoon of mint sauce from fresh mint).
- Enjoy!
