This was easy and very tasty! I made the cucumber sauce the night before. Next time, I will probably use fat free sour cream or plain yogurt just to cut down on some fat. I used a Greek marinade for the chicken and it was wonderful! I will make these again.

Definitely gets better every time I make it. So simple and easy, yet very tasty and easy to dress up even more if you want! Try with spinach or add feta and tomato!

The cucumber dressing makes this meal SO fresh and yummy. I often eat the dressing over chicken without the pita.

Cucumber sauce for gyros is made with plain yogurt and not sour cream....this is the only thing I changed.....other than that, its great!!

I did not like the sauce for this at all. The chicken was pretty good but I don't think it would have been if it wasn't for all of the spices I added to it myself. If you are looking for a Gyro that you can make at home don't use this receipe. For authentic Gyro sauce you are supposed to use Greek yogurt and mint... not sour cream and dill. It was edible but it is not the Gyro alternative I was looking for.
