Gyros Chicken
- Mix the oil and Gyros spice in a dish or plate large enough for all your chicken. Add the chicken and thoroughly coat with the spice mix on both sides
- Put the chicken in the grill pan (no wire rack) and cook under the grill for 9-10 minutes (12-14 if the breast are very thick)
- Turn the chicken and coat with any remaining spice mix
- Cook for another 8-12 minutes, according to thickness
- Serve immediately with salad or vegetables.
Notes
Everyday Cooks tips:
- Make your own Gyros Spice Mix to give the level of heat that you like and to make sure you always have it in the cupboard
- For a speedier dish on the day, prepare the night before and leave in the fridge ready to cook.
