QUICK GRILLED CHICKEN GYROS!! LEFTOVER MAKEOVER!!

Today I am sharing a great way to use leftover chicken whether it's grilled, broiled or roasted and make some delicious, quick and easy, Gyros for sandwich night or for a quick lunch. This is super easy to throw together and a fablulous change from taco night! Yes, we love our tacos, but gyros are just as good and a great way to change things up! Using some warmed up pita bread, some warmed leftover or freshly grilled chicken and all the usual suspects, top that gyro the way you love it best. Wrap it in some foil just like the local Greek diner and you are ready to enjoy the fastest sandwich night ever!

These start with some delicous chicken, but you could also use leftover steak, pork loin or pork chops, whatever you like! I took some grilled chicken that was seasoned with some of that amazing Greek seasoning from Cavenders and I sliced it and tossed it in a skillet with a little water over medium high heat. Popped the lid on and let it simmer for a few minutes then removed the lid, drained the water and returned the chicken to the heat to sear for just a minute or two and it was as delicious as the day it was grilled.

While the chicken is warming, get your toppings ready. I used diced heirloom tomatoes, sliced, sweet onion, crumbled feta and some of our homemade Tzatziki sauce. You could add sliced black olives, thinly sliced cucumbers, green or red onion, shredded lettuce, or some lemon wedges for a good squeeze of acid. You decide what you like and make it happen!

Then all you have left to do is build your gyro! I like to lay down a piece of foil and put my warmed pita on top so that it is hanging halfway off the foil. Then spread the pita with a generous amount of that tzatziki, lay on some chicken slices, top with tomatoes, onions and crumbled feta. Then roll that pita sandwich up so it is sort of like a cone with the skinny end away from you, then fold up the part of the foil that is hanging off the pita and tightly wrap the sides up on to themselves wrapping your gyro in a safe, warm swaddle. This helps a lot when eating and really helps if you have children. You can also choose to lay down some parchment on top of the foil if you like.

These were so delicius and a quick way to fix dinner on the fly, especially during these super hot end of summer days. A great way to use bounty from the garden and use up the homemade tatziki sauce that we made for so many of our Mediterranean treats. This can be done in a variety of ways and everyone is going to love it!

I hope you give this idea for a different twist on sandwich night a try and I hope you make these grilled chicken gyros and I hope you love them!

Happy Eating!
