Instead of settling for grilled hot dogs and burgers, try this recipe for delicious Greek grilled chicken gyros. Chicken breasts are marinated in a lemony vinaigrette studded with garlic and oregano. The grilled chicken slices are nestled into a warm pita with feta cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, and olives. Serve this Greek inspired meal with hummus, stuffed grape leaves, and more pita bread.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup Olive Oil
2 cloves of garlic minced
1 large head of Romaine lettuce rough chopped
2 roma tomatoes chopped
1/2 cucumber
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (or one TBS dried)
1/4 cup chopped red onion
10 or more pitted kalamata olives (optional)
Directions:
Slice the raw chicken breasts lengthwise into 4 thin strips each.
Grill the chicken about 4 minutes on each side.
Combine the vegetables, parsley and cheese in a large bowl.
