Ingredients

Easy Sheet Pan Chicken Gyros Marinade

  • 1 1/2- 2 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
  • 4 tbsp greek yogurt
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 1 tbsp ground mustard
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Easy Sheet Pan Chicken Toppings

  • Favorite Hummus of choice
  • Favorite Tizatziki of choice
  • 1 large cucumber
  • 10 cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 red onion
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 4 oz Container Feta Cheese
  • 6-8 pita breads

Instructions

  • Place the Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs in baking dish. In a small bowl add salt, dried basil, onion powder & pepper. Whisk together until fully incorporated
  • Sprinkle the seasoning generously on both sides of all the chicken thighs
  • Then in a medium size bowl add Greek Yogurt, lemon juice, honey, ground mustard, & 4 garlic cloves minced. Whisk until fully combined
  • Pour over the chicken thighs & toss them in the sauce until both sides are covered. Cover the baking dish with saran wrap & refrigerate to marinate for 30 minutes before baking.
  • While the chicken is marinating, in a small bowl, add in diced up red onion, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. Then you will sprinkle with salt, toss & refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. After the chicken has marinated, line your half sheet baking sheet with aluminum foil & place the chicken thighs on top.
  • Bake you chicken thighs until cooked through. The juices will run clear, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the middle of the largest thigh will read 165ºF. In my oven, this takes about 30- 35 minutes. Every oven is different, so I'd say check at 30 minutes.
  • Then lastly you will start layering your gyro! I always do hummus first, then chicken sliced, cucumber tomato mixture, tzatziki & feta! Enjoy!
