Gyros bowl with chicken, fries, and fresh salad

Gyros Bowl (Meat, Side, Salad)

The origin of the gyros bowl can be traced back to Greece, where the word "gyros" means rotation, referring to the meat roasted on a rotating spit. Starting from street food stalls, it became a worldwide favorite, and today it is known as one of the most popular fast foods worldwide. The aroma of freshly sautéed meat and the scent of spices create an appetizing atmosphere during cooking. The fries are crispy, the salad is fresh, and the tzatziki is refreshingly creamy - a perfect one-dish meal. Tip: If you want extra crispy fries, soak them in cold water before frying, then pat them dry. This dish is a great choice for a weekend lunch or a gathering with friends, and can even be varied with beef or a vegetarian version.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Slice the chicken breast fillet into thin strips. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, and smoked paprika, then toss in the chicken. Let it marinate for 15 minutes. Tip: For a more intense flavor, marinate in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.

    2

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken for 6-8 minutes, until crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Tip: Don't overcrowd the pan, so the strips brown nicely.

    3

    Peel the potatoes, cut them into fries, and deep-fry in hot oil or bake in the oven at 400°F (200°C) until golden brown. Tip: Baking is healthier; toss with a little olive oil and bake with convection for best results.

    4

    For the salad, wash the vegetables: tear the lettuce into pieces, slice the tomatoes and cucumber, and thinly slice the red onion.

    5

    For the tzatziki, grate part of the cucumber (about 50 g), salt it, and squeeze out the liquid. Mix it with Greek yogurt, crushed garlic, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Tip: The flavors meld better when chilled.

    6

    Assemble the gyros bowl: arrange the sautéed chicken, fries, and fresh salad on a plate. Serve the tzatziki alongside in a separate small bowl or on the side of the plate. Tip: You can also add pita bread if desired.
