So simple and delish! I used baby (seedless) cucumbers and chopped them instead of shredding. I also doubled the amount of cucumbers and garlic for the sauce. I used Greek Yogurt and had no problem with the sauce being watery. I followed the rest of the recipe to a tee. This completely satisfied my craving for gyros. THANK YOU FOR POSTING.

Delicious !! I sliced the chicken and marinated as per recipe but omitted the lemon juice and added greek seasonings. Made a simple tzatziki sause with diced cucumber, greek yogert, lemon juice, greek seasonins, garlic, salt & olive oil. I also made a greek salad & served it on white rice.

This was SO good! I wanted the chicken to be well marinated, so I cut it up into one inch pieces, marinated the pieces for about three hours, then skewered them and grilled the skewers. I made the sauce two hours in advance so the flavors would have some time to meld and it was perfect! (Note: I couldn’t find fresh dill so I substituted 1 tsp dried dill in place of the fresh). My husband couldn’t get enough of it! Thanks for the great recipe! Well definitely be making it again.

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! I didn't have Greek seasoning, so I used what others suggested; a mixture of garlic and onion powders, oregano and basil. Other than that, made recipe as stated. So good! Will definitely make again.

The tzatziki sauce was salty. I'd tone that down. Other then that, pretty good.

Fantastic! Used garlic flat bread, could not find thick pita. Excellent! Used about an 8 inch piece of foil to wrap up gyro (check photos),works extremely well. Place all items in small bowls and let everyone make it to their liking. Rave reviews. Left over cucumber Tzatziki sauce is great for a light salad dressing.

This recipe is the closest to authentic greek food I've been able to make at home. It tastes soooo good! Rave reviews from everyone who tries it, especially the tzatziki sauce. The chicken has great flavor and the sauce tastes better than our local greek place's version! I've substituted dried dill in a pinch and it works well. Also, I make my own balsamic vinaigrette and it is a good sub too. I've made this recipe five or six times now, paired with Peppy's Pita bread (from allrecipes) and a green salad with feta croutons, radishes, zucchini and a lemon vinaigrette. YUM! Thank you so much for sharing!

We haven't got a grill at the moment so I used my cast iron skillet with some olive oil. I also boneless skinless chicken thighs as dark meat is a bit more forgiving before it dries out. 8 minutes on a side worked perfectly! Also, I couldn't find any 'Greek Seasoning' at my local store so I subbed in a mix of garlic powder, cumin, basil, oregano and onion powder in trace amounts. Everything came out WONDERFULLY. Thanks for the recipe, Chris!
