Mexican-style gyro in a tortilla wrap with grilled chicken, salsa, and guacamole

Mexican-Style Gyro (Salsa & Guacamole)

The gyro, a classic Greek dish, has many faces – and when it meets the bold flavors of Mexican cuisine, something truly special is born. This gyro, featuring salsa and guacamole in a tortilla wrap, is a modern, youthful dish that perfectly combines Mediterranean and Latin flavors. The crisp vegetables, fresh avocado cream, and spiced chicken with a touch of lime offer both an experience and a satisfying meal. Every part of the dish is based on fresh ingredients, creating a harmony of textures and colors. Tip: For an even spicier experience, use jalapeño slices or chipotle sauce in the salsa. This gyro version is excellent for a weekend brunch, outdoor party, or even a quick dinner.

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Cut the chicken breast into thin strips, then marinate with the gyro seasoning mix and olive oil. Let it rest for at least 20 minutes. Tip: A little lime juice makes the marinade even fresher.

    2

    Cook the meat in a hot skillet for 6–8 minutes, until golden brown. Don't overcrowd the pan to ensure proper browning.

    3

    For the guacamole, mash the avocado with a fork, then add the lime juice, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper. Tip: Don't let it sit in the air for too long, or it will turn brown!

    4

    Dice the tomatoes and finely chop the red onion, then mix them with a little hot sauce. This will be the salsa.

    5

    Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or oven until pliable but not crispy. Tip: Keep them warm in a kitchen towel until serving.

    6

    Assembly: pile the lettuce, cooked chicken, salsa, and guacamole onto the tortilla wrap. Serve with tortilla chips. Eat immediately!
