Instructions

Step 1
Dice the chicken thighs into small chunks. Add to a large bowl. Grate the garlic and chilli into the bowl. Add 3 teaspoons of oregano, the zest of a lemon, 3 tablespoons of yogurt and salt and pepper. Rub together and cover with clingfilm (plastic wrap). Put in the fridge to marinade for 15 minutes.
Step 2
Tzatziki time. Pour the rest of the yogurt into another bowl. Chuck in a finely chopped small bunch of mint, the juice of the lemon and a grated cucumber (squeeze out the grated cucumber to remove any excess liquid). Season well and mix it all together.
Step 3
Tomato salsa time. Deseed and finely chop the tomatoes. Add to a bowl with 2–3 teaspoons of dried oregano, salt, pepper and olive oil.
Step 4
Finely chop the lettuce.
Step 5
Put a griddle pan over a medium–high heat. Once it is hot, add your chicken chunks. They’ll need 3 minutes on each side.
Step 6
Warm the pittas in a toaster or in the microwave.
Step 7
Assemble the gyros by adding the chicken, lettuce, salsa and tzatziki to the pittas and rolling them up. Tuck in!
