GreeK Air Fryer (AF) Chicken Gyro Style


Last Thursday I DIDN’T have enough leftovers so I decided to make some Greek chicken in the air fryer GYRO 🥙 style! Well I am here to tell you it was absolutely delicious and this is how you can do the same at home! Half of the ingredients are no prep required! GK AF Chicken Gyro Style

Ingredients for Chicken

  • 2 lbs of chicken breast (if thick chicken breast, slice in middle and make two thin breasts from one -I got 6 total out of 3.)

  • 1/2 tsp Oregano

  • 1 tsp Rosemary

  • 1/2 tsp pepper

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp Garlic powder

  • 1/4 cup Lemon garlic dressing

  • 1 tblsp Plain gk yogurt

Ingredients Required for GYRO Assembly:

  • Naan bread (to be your pita)

  • Feta cheese

  • CAVA tzaziki (@WholeFoods)

  • Tabouleh salad (already prepared @wholefoods)

  • Pitted Greek Olives and Kalamata from olive bar or kalamata olives (pitted, jarred)

Directions
If working with thick chicken breasts, Slice them length wise so you get two thin breasts essentially out of 1 thick breast. Rub the dry spices into the chicken breasts. Then in a marinade bag, add the spice rubbed chicken, followed by the lemon garlic dressing and the gk yogurt. Squeeze out any excess air from your marinade bag and close the bag shut. Take your meat mallet out and start pulverizing with the flat edge. This mallet makes for a quick way to marinade anything.

Place 3 of the 6 pieces of chicken into the air fryer. Spray with some olive oil on top. Air fry at 370 for 10 minutes.

**FLIP OVER**

Air fry at 370 for 5 more minutes. Repeat with the other 3 pieces of chicken. While chicken cooks, I line a baking sheet with foil and place my naan on top. With a basting brush, I brush some olive oil on each piece of naan, and I dust each piece with salt & pepper. Right before serving, 5 minutes before, put naan into the oven :) Slice your Air Fried (AF) chicken and serve on top of warm naan, with tzaziki, feta, olives, and tabouleh. Feel free to add more fun toppings like picked red onion 🧅 , cherry tomatoes🍅 , avocado 🥑 and ENJOY!
