A delicious and easy recipe for Sheet Pan Chicken Gyros, featuring seasoned ground chicken baked on a sheet pan, served with a fresh tomato-onion topping and a creamy yogurt sauce on pita bread.
Start by mincing 1 tbsp worth of garlic and grating 1 onion. Mix them into 2.5 lbs of ground chicken, along with 2 tbsp tomato paste, 2 tbsp chopped parsley, 1 tbsp paprika, 2 tsp cumin, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp oregano, 2 tsp sea salt, and 1 tsp black pepper. Place the mixture onto a sheet pan, over parchment paper, and use a spatula to spread it out evenly. Use the spatula to score it into sections. Bake in the oven at 475F for around 20 minutes or until hitting 165F internal temperature. While the chicken bakes, make the tomato onion topping: combine 1.5 cups chopped cherry tomatoes, 1/4 cup sliced onions, 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp chopped parsley, 1/2 tsp sumac seasoning, the juice of half a lemon, and salt and pepper to taste. Next, make the yogurt sauce: mix 1 cup greek yogurt, 1 cup mayo, 2 cloves garlic minced, 1 tbsp olive oil, the juice of half a lemon, and salt to taste. Once the chicken is fully cooked, separate it into strips, and build the gyros on pita bread with the tomato onion topping, yogurt sauce, and more parsley.
