boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
TZATZIKI SAUCE
grated cucumber (about ¾ English cucumber)

juice of half a lemon

TO SERVE
pocketless pita breads
green leaf lettuce, shredded
large tomato, diced
½ red onion, thinly sliced
Combine the yogurt, garlic, parsley, thyme, lemon juice, cumin, paprika, salt
and pepper in a large bowl. If you are using chicken breasts, slice the chicken
breasts in half horizontally so they are thin pieces. Then, cut the chicken into
overnight.
Load the chicken pieces onto the Rotisserie Spit. Start by fixing one set of
Rotisserie Tines to one end of the Rotisserie Spit. Then, slide the chicken
pieces down onto the tines, pressing the slices of chicken firmly together.
Try to make sure at least two tines are going through each piece of chicken.
When all the chicken pieces are loaded on the spit add the other set of
Rotisserie Tines and fix it to the Rotisserie Spit by tightening the Rotisserie
Screw. If necessary, loosen the screws and slide everything to one side or
the other to adjust the chicken so it is positioned in the middle of the Spit.
Tighten the Rotisserie Screws so the chicken does not slide on the spit.
Place the Baking/Drip Pan in the bottom rack position of the Air Fryer Toaster
Oven and add water to cover the bottom of the pan. Transfer the chicken
to the Air Fryer Toaster Oven by placing the spit in the slots in the Air Fryer
Toaster Oven.
Set the Air Fryer Toaster Oven to the Rotisserie function and temperature
thermometer.
While the chicken is cooking make the Tzatziki Sauce. Place the grated
cucumber on a paper towel and twist to squeeze out as much liquid as
you can. Combine the cucumber, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil and
chopped dill and parsley in a bowl. Season with salt and freshly ground black
pepper and chill until you are ready to serve.
Remove the chicken from the Air Fryer Toaster Oven using the Rotisserie
Removal Tool and place it on a cutting board to rest, loosely tented with foil.
Brush the pita breads with a little olive oil and place them in the Air Fryer
Basket. Place the Wire Rack in the middle rack position in the Air Fryer
Toaster Oven and transfer the Air Fryer Basket to the Air Fryer Toaster Oven.
Remove the Rotisserie Tines from the Spit. Slide the chicken down to hit the
cutting board, but do not remove the Spit. Use the Spit to hold the chicken
vertically on a cutting board and slice the chicken off the Spit.
Assemble the Gyros by spreading a little tzatziki sauce on the warm pita,
top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes and red onion. Place some of the
sliced chicken on top and dollop with a little more tzatziki sauce. Fold up the
pita bread and secure with a toothpick or wrap it in parchment paper and foil
to enjoy it food truck style!
