Loaf Pan Chicken Gyros

Ingredients:

  • 3 tbs Greek yogurt
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 1 tbs white wine vinegar
  • 1 medium lemon, juiced
  • 1 tbs dried oregano
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 lbs chicken thighs, boneless + skinless

Directions:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together everything but the chicken.
  • Add the chicken to a large ziplock bag and then the marinade.  Toss around to coat everything well and place in your fridge for a minimum of 2 hours.  Or overnight.  I marinated mine for 5 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350° F.
  • Important:  line a 9×5” loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Layer the chicken in the loaf pan and then press them down at the end.
  • Bake for 1 hour or until the internal temperature reads 160° F.  Remove your pan from the oven and let it rest for ten minutes.  Next drain the juices carefully from the pan. Transfer gyro to a cutting board and slice as needed.
