Cooking Steps

Bake the fries
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. 
• Cut potato into fries.
• Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, 
season with salt and toss to coat.
• Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Remove tray from oven, then sprinkle with a 
good pinch of dried oregano and toss to coat.


TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide fries 
between two trays.  

Get prepped
2

• Meanwhile, thinly slice tomato into rounds.
• Thinly slice onion (see ingredients). 
• Finely chop garlic. 
• Grate cucumber and squeeze out any excess 
moisture using paper towel.
• In a medium bowl, combine paprika spice blend 
and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken breast 
strips, turning to coat. 

Pickle the onion
3

• In a small bowl, combine the white wine 
vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt.
• Scrunch sliced onion in your hands, then add 
it to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just 
cover onion. Set aside.

Make the tzatziki
4

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive 
oil over medium-high heat. Cook garlic until 
fragrant, 1 minute.
• Transfer garlic oil to a small heatproof 
bowl, then add natural yoghurt and grated 
cucumber. Stir to combine and season to taste 
with salt and pepper. 

Cook the chicken
5

• When the fries have 10 minutes remaining, 
return frying pan to medium-high heat with a 
drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook chicken, until browned and cooked 
through, turning occasionally, 6-8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place large wraps directly on a wire 
oven rack and heat until golden, 3-5 minutes.


TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer 
pink inside.

Finish & serve
6

• Drain pickled onion.
• Spread wraps with tzatziki, then fill with chicken, 
tomato rounds, pickled onion and some fries.
• Fold bottom of wrap over filling, then fold in the 
sides. Roll tightly from the bottom to form  
a gyros.
• Serve with any remaining oregano fries and 
tzatziki. Enjoy!
