Greek Chicken Gyro | Akis Petretzikis 

Made this tonight. Served with homemade tzatziki I made from your recipe, thin red onion, and halved cherry tomatoes on Greek pita. I took a bite and it tasted like a real restaurant gyro, but I made it. Thank you so much. Liked and subscribed.

Akis !! I tried the pita bread, the tzatziki sauce and the chicken and... my god it was delicious!! Thank u for your recipes and your good vibes !!

My Greek God!! My family appreciates this and the tzatziki recipes. We made it and mmmmmmm!!!

Your recipies have made me a champion in the kitchen. Thanks Akis.

This food looked so delicious, I had to go out to buy a few ingredients and get cracking straight away. It only took three hours to shop, chop, cook, serve and eat: Chicken gyros (I know, it only marinated for an hour and a half), Greek flatbread, tzaziki and a Greek salad. Absolutely bloody delicious - even if I do say so myself - but so did everyone. And it was so cheap to make. Perfect! x

Made this Saturday, it was absolutely delicious, the week before I made souvlaki ( your recipe of course) that was amazing too. My son recently went on holiday to Samos and he messaged me quite a few times telling me what he’d eaten for dinner and how nice it was , so I thought I’d try a few recipes and I always think it’s better to get a true Greek recipe and who better than you, oh and almost forgot your pita bread recipe is delicious 😋 thanks Akis love from The Netherlands 🇳🇱

I followed all your instructions except that I have only marinated for one hour instead of 2 days for testing. I also cooked it by little batches and cleaned the pan before adding some more. The result was absolutely amazing. I also did the tzatziki sauce. My wife and I love it. I will do it again. 👍👍 Thanks so much

Aki!!!... after first batch of chicken is cooked, use pita to clean the pan then fry the pita. Looks amazing, bravo. Great tip about not crowding the frying pan.

Those gyros look delicious!! I´m going to prepare it these weekend with my wife!

Marinade: - 1 tbsp coriander seeds - 1 grated garlics - grated zest of 1 lemon - 2 tbsp smoked paprika - 2 pinches chilli flakes - 1 tbsp dry thyme Crush til finely ground - add salt and pepper - 60ml olive oil - juice from half a lemon Stir til combined Prep chicken (he uses 3 boneless chicken thighs, doesn’t dry as easily as breast) - Cut into thin strips - Transfer to bowl and add marinade and mix well - Can refrigerate up to 2 days; longer you marinade better it is - Add chicken to pan and let it brown; don’t crowd pan - When ready, add 1 tbsp lemon juice and stir Thank u for this amazing recipe!

I'm half Greek love this, now very hungry lol

yess!.. and he know how to cook... well that was my friend who told me because I didint realise he was cooking... God you are soooo handsom.

Just made this and it came out amazing! Thanks for the recipe :)

Done and Done! Husband loved and kids were all for it! Thank you for sharing with us how to make it!!

Fantastic recipe!! I made this today and my family loved it!! my pethero was impressed!!! I was worried about the quantity of the oil and used a little less and worked out well!! You were right about not crowding the pan and 5 minutes cooking time the last batch I made stayed a long 7 minutes which was too much! Thanks Akis!

Did this tonight. Exceptional, sir. Thank you, subscribed.

Made this marinade for when I prep cook my work lunches with chicken breast. It is so tender and flavorful.

Hi there! I've tried this recipe and omg, it was just delicious! Your marinade gave a powerful taste to the chicken. Because I'm from México, I just add some more pepper and that's it... many thanks for sharing, cheers!

Akis maybe you can show us how to cook your favourite soup for those hangover mornings?:)

Really great dish, the recipe works perfecrly, chicken, pita, potatoes and everything! Please keep up with this project! Thx

My favorite recipe maybe ever! tried it multiple times and every time it's just the best! Thyme is magic btw.

Dear Akis: have you ever tried Merkén? It’s a spice from southern Chile that has caught the attention of many chefs around the world. If you don’t know it, I think you should try it. You’re gonna love it!

Mmmmm ! Greetings from Gouda, The Netherlands !

Να σε καλά Ακι

Thank you Akis! This looks yummy and I will be making it tomorrow. I already tried your pork gyro recipe and loved it.

I made these with mushrooms since I am vegetarian, and I have to say, they are mind-blowing. ❤️ love it!

post workout meal right there !!!!

We just made this chicken gyro along with pita and tzatziki from Akis' recipes. Best homemade dinner EVER and super simple to make!

Akis,thanks for sharing this recipe all my freinds love it....😉👍

hi Akis, very good recipe, have you ever do this marinade with LAMB?

Looks amazing! Can't wait to try it

I think I have loved you since the pizza recipes. and all the sweet Philo dishes.

That's the real food 👌🏽😋

Akis, your recipes are wonderful superb!

Best background music, ever.

Chicken Gyros!!! I am lovin the chicken as a substitute!

I love your pronunciation :D gotta try this !

thanks, was looking for this recipe!

This looks delicious!!! I'm Greek and didn't know there was such an easy way to make chicken gyro. I'll try to make it. Can i use dry thyme or fresh? Montreal has good gyros but Greece is famous for their gyros among other food. (the list is too long). I've seen many of your recipes and they all look so simple when YOU make them. keep on cooking and please don't stop posting your wonderful recipes. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!

Looks great Akis! :)

just made this and omg everyone in my house loved it! thank you! :)

Awesome recipe thank you chef 👍👍

Great job. I'm making this, and also your tzatziki sauce!

I think that in Greece there is no Gyro meat that is not also marinated with onions ( meat rested together with onions for some time). maybe I am wrong but a friend I have that prepared gyro meat, they rest the meat together with onions for hours among other things.

gonna try it out tonight

Im going to have 2 try this i love tryin new ways to make gyros thanks 4 the video

Looks amazing 😍

Bruuuhh I just made this last night along with his tzatziki sauce recipe.. really delicious stuff, there were no leftovers
