Grilled Chicken Gyro
Ingredients:
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into ½" pieces: 1 ½ cups Greek yogurt: 4 Food for Life Ezekiel 4:9 Prophet's Pocket Breads:
Chicken breasts work just fine here, but we prefer thighs for Yogurt does double-duty here, serving as the base for the cucumber sauce Of course, any solid whole-wheat pita will do, but we love Food for
two reasons: First, they emerge juicier and more flavorful used to top the pitas as well as the foundation for the marinade. Yogurt is Life's because each pocket packs 7 grams of protein and 4 grams
from the high-heat grilling. Second, they cost about half as popular as a marinade for meat in the Middle East because the natural of fiber into just 100 calories—an impressive nutritional feat
much as the more popular breasts. lactic acids help break down tough muscle fiber. unmatched by other national bread makers.
You'll Also Need:
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp cumin
½ tsp dried oregano
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and ground black pepper
1 Tbsp olive oil
½ Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 cup peeled, seeded, and finely chopped cucumber
How to Make It:
• Combine the chicken with ½ cup of the yogurt, two-thirds of the minced garlic, and
the cumin, oregano, and lemon juice, plus a few pinches each of salt and pepper, in a
large mixing bowl. Cover with plastic and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2
hours and up to 8.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium. While it’s heating, combine the remaining
yogurt and garlic with the olive oil, vinegar, cucumber, and salt to taste in a medium
bowl. Set it aside.
• Grill the chicken until it’s lightly charred on each side and cooked all the way
through, about 8 minutes on a hot grill. Remove it to a plate and set it aside. While the
grill is still hot, lightly toast the pitas on it. After the chicken has rested for 5 minutes,
slice it into strips and stuff it into the toasted pitas along with the yogurt sauce and any
other condiments you choose. Makes 4 servings.
Recommended Condiments:
Choose as many or as few as you see fit:
• Hummus
• Hot sauce
• Sliced tomatoes
• Chopped romaine
• Chopped cucumber
• Sliced onions
• Fresh chopped herbs like parsely, oregano, and basil
The words Taco Bell and genius seldom meet in the same
sentence, but it’s hard to deny that the executive behind the
invention of the Mexican Pizza was a savant of some kind. Its
convergence of melted cheese, creamy beans, and peppery hot
sauce represents one of the great creations of this modern
fast-food era, but it also happens to be one of the Bell’s most
calorie- and sodium-saddled entrées. We lighten the load
here by ditching the superfluous extra layer of tortilla,
trading that weird crumbled beef for chunks of chicken
chorizo, and going long on the good stuff like black beans
and salsa.
