Step-by-Step Directions:
1. Marinate the Chicken:
In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken and ensure it’s well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor. 🌟

2. Prepare the Tzatziki:
Combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, dill, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Chill for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully. 😋

3. Cook the Chicken:
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temp: 165°F). Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then slice into strips. 🍗🔥

4. Assemble Your Gyros:
Lay out a warm pita bread, spread tzatziki generously, and layer with chicken, tomatoes, lettuce, red onion, and feta (if desired). Fold the pita around the filling, and voilà! Your gyro is ready to be devoured. 🥙✨
