The smoky sear of chicken grilled over open flames contrasts perfectly with a fresh, bright tzatziki sauce in these loaded chicken gyros. A homemade seasoning mix and a drizzle of lemon while cooking over the wood fire ensures rich flavor on the chicken. Meanwhile the tzatziki combines Greek yogurt with fresh cucumber and herbs as well as a hit of tangy lemon and garlic for a spread that’s deliciously cooling. Add it all to a grill-toasted pita and top with your veggies of choice for a hearty and refreshing meal.About the cut: Chicken breasts come from the underside of the chicken. They provide plenty of surface area to get a nice sear on the flames while being thick enough to still have juicy meat inside. Using boneless chicken breasts will allow for a faster cook.This recipe was created by our partner Wayne Cafariella who made the dish on our Oklahoma Joe’s® Firecraft Series™ Barrel Grill, but you can make it on your grill or smoker.
