Just made this today. Turned out delicious, though I recommend using multiple skewers to keep the chicken from falling over. I ended up making something of a tri-pod with skewers since the onion base wasn't stable enough to keep everything upright in the oven.
Yep i bulit an empire with the skewers tbh hahaha 😂
Same!! Love this but totally tipped over the first time. Tastes amazing anyway lol
Potatoes work best 👍
I tried this technique but mine tipped over multiple times. I kept putting it back up though lol
i am from greece and
gyros it's great,everyone try this you all are gonna love it!!!
What is difference between gyros, doner kebab and Shawarma?
Tip for the greek yogurt and cucumber sause (taziki): Add a bit of salt to the grated cucumber and leave for a bit before squeezing the water... With this you can take more water out, and prevent water to get in your sause later.
Just made this!!! So yummy!! Only thing I did different was put the thighs on the grill and we used red onions instead of the white ones. At first we thought the sauce was a bit acidic but when we put it on the meat, and that along with the tomatoes complimented it well. The onions really set the flavor off too. This is one we will be having often!!! Thank you! 😊
I would suggest using 3 onions half as the bottom support in a triangular formation. Otherwise it may fall. As mine is currently doing lol.
I have made this 3 times now. I love it. Very easy. I add a little more chilli for a personal touch. Delicious 👍🏻

Am I the only one who watches Tasty when you get reeeeally hungry?
Morelineable This recipe is too iconic to have an "oh yeah" at the end
Tried this recipe and it came out great! I used half the cinnamon since I've never used it for a meat dish before and was a bit nervous about it. Same with the parsley since my family is not a huge fan of it. Other than that I followed the recipe to a T. Keep it up Tasty, good show.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE RECIPES!!! I just made this tonight and it was absolutely incredible
Is it just me missing the "oh yeah/yes" part at the end!!?😂
yeah its totally there usually
Ooooh yeessss! 😁
No same
Better off
No
It was awesome every body LOVED it! Definitely a must for now on! 10/10 would recommend
Apparently, the recipe was so nice that they had to upload it twice.
Big Marc Nice reference!
Big Marc lol I was like wtf
Exactly, lazy fucks at Tasty
CrazyIceCream Lazy fucks? They consistently upload every single day. That's commitment.
CrazyIceCream stfu no one cares about your bitch ass opinions
In tzatziki we use yogurt, salt garlic, olive oil and cucumbers. (And pepper sometimes) when assembling we also put the tzatziki first as a layer in the pita and the we put the rest of the ingredients. If you spread the tzatziki in the pita then with every pita bite you are guaranteed a bit of tzatziki. Also as last topping we use fries and we wrap it in itself in a cone shape. Also we don't use cinnamon in the chicken. (Or at least I have never tested chicken gyros that smells/tastes like cinnamon)
Assembling the chicken in the wooden stick with the onion on the bottom is a great idea but the fact that it's not rotating you aren't gonna have that crispy end. Then again it's the safest way to make it at home so thumbs up for that.
I just enjoy watching tasty videos and I clicked on this one out of curiosity :p
I give it a 6/8
Made this at home. Family LOVED IT. Thanks for the new regular dish at our dinner table Tasty 😋
Thank you so much Folks at Tasty I made this recipe and it was absolutely amazing thank you again
This looks unbelievably delicious.
For anyone wondering: I just tried this recipe and it's my favorite so far! If you like Greek food you have to try it
You mean turkish food
lon don if there wasn’t a cultural, language, and religious barrier look at Greeks and Turks they look almost the same
Should we cut the fat from chicken thighs ? It will be dry without it right ?
@@london593 one more of these and I'll say the n-word, kebab boy
@@london593 Turks are a mix of Greeks, Armenians, Kurds etc...
I made this! Turned out amazing! Add sour cream to the tzatziki if you think it's too sour (made it 100% better). Also, I cooked mine in a baking pan with a slices of onions under each thigh and stacked the thighs two high. Good luck!
An "I made this" comment is all I ever look for under these videos, but usually never find. Thanks so much for this
BigOleTodd try the traditional Greek one! It's delicious😋✨
Should we cut the fat from chicken thighs ? It will be dry without it right ?
Whooooa yessss!!! Definitely trying it this way next!!! 🙌🏾
Greece here!! Where gyros and souvlaki are from🇬🇷
Marinade originally is thyme, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper, oliveoil without joghurt. Also the tzsatziki is without dill. But I would like to test your receipe. Looks good.
Made this today with 10 peace of chicken and here are a couple of tips: 1. Use foil (I used a parchment paper first and the juice burned on it and made a smoking mess in the oven, changed it to foil and life got easy!) 2. Skip the onion at the bottom (reason is that it gets soft and your tower keeps falling and it gets annoying. The first couple layers of chicken create the base for the rest of them, so no need for an onion!)
I used two potatoes as the base which I cut the top and bottom from to forms a flat surface. I don’t think it would have stayed standing if I just used chicken.
It’s better to use a thick base of potatoe
Made this several times now and it’s legit my favorite at home chicken dish to make 😻😻
Yum! Wheres the guy at the end of the video that says "OH YES!" I love that! Please put that guy back on.
Looks Amazing, thanks for the quick video
0:04 So that's how you put Lemon in those things. I've always done it the other way xD
SiNKarnage same. I just found out how people do it a few weeks ago and my whole life was a lie
Ha Na - No. The skin faces up. The flesh faces the holes. How else does the juice go through the holes?
OH WHOOPS
SiNKarnage just why?
SiNKarnage Lol 😂
Bravo! I just stood and gave a round of applause. This is awesome.
I tried this and it was delicious. Thank you.
For quarantine cooking, this tastes like ‘restaurant’ level 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Finally dish without cheese
Maitreyee Jaiswal oh yes
Maitreyee Jaiswal cheese hater lol
Oh man it finally happened
What u mean this dish is ain't wit chees ?
@ToeKnee Balony Τι λες ρε μαλάκα?
This looks sooooo good!!!!
I did it, loved it. Even made the gyros bread home made. It wasn't like the lamb I had at the place over seas, but It was delicious and I was satisfied.
guys here in greece we put french fries in our pita (tip)
tomas koutsa yu wish weirdo

And ketchup and mustard
@@BadToTheLastBone that's a disgrace
my guinea pig enjoyed the music.
Made it and I've been eating off of it for a week and a half or two. It's just me so I'm glad it was a lot. Even the sauce was amazing!!! I love this recipe!!
You're eating 2 week old chicken!??
Just finished baking the Chicken Gyros. It came out great. Taste great too, thanks for the recipe.
I'm drunk an this looks amazing right now
So about 30 mins into the cooking it fell over. Before applying the meat I placed a pan to see how straight the onion was cut and it was straight across. Not sure why it would not stay straight.
I just turned it on its side and wrapped the bottom with foil then turned it on the other side for the last 30 mins. The meat was tasty 😋
For my family and I the Tzatziki sauce had to much lemon. Placed
with the rest of the food it was fine but to dip with bread it was to much lemon.
Wish I would have done 4 lbs of meat to have more leftovers. Much cheaper then takeout but a little more then our normal budget meals.
I give this recipe 4 ⭐️
Onion is gonna soften while cooking and the stick will fall over easily, that's why it fell over.
Lemon doesn't go in tzatziki, that is for sure. Next time omit it and you'll have a much better result.
CrazyJuplup the Onion was still hard and I left it in the pan so I would have roasted onion. The meat was cooked but not the onion🤷🏽♀️
mrjohanmehmetbeta I might try using a just a Tbp of lemon the next time I make this dish. Sadly I bought Greek vanilla yogurt during the quarantine. Last week the meat came out so sweet🤦🏽♀️ and I didn’t make the sauce after I realized it was Vanilla yogurt🥺
I love that sauce.
Add a cookie cooler on top of the cookie sheet. So that part of the skewer can stick out of the bottom of the onion. I've found the cookie cooler helps it balance so it wont fall over! (also idk the appropriate term for cookie cooler lmao. its what i call the grid surface that you place cookies on to cool them down!)
Also... i suggest not using yogurt for the marinade. And marinate for a min of 24 hours for the best results. Coming from experience
That looks absolutelly gorgeous😮
I made this recipe today and i cooked my chicken on the airfryer. It was amazing!!!!
Great idea and recipe. Don't know how I've missed this before. Another great dish for me to try. Thank you enormously. 👍
THATS WHY WE ARE PROUD 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷 ΕΛΛΑΔΑΡΑΑ ΜΟΥ
Turkish Döner kebab. 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Turned out great , loved it 👍
looks sooo good
Where's my "Oh yes." Outro bro......
I've been using this recipe for years, but I find 30 mins before the end of cooking I'm having to cut the meat off the skewer otherwise its under done in the middle
That looks amazing! :)
Looks Good.
This is called souvlaki with chichen! This sause above the chichen is really unique though! And this is a Greek dish ! Thank you for making it! I hope you all enjoyed it! It's a really delicious dish !
Marie for fk sake stop saying chichen its CHICKEN!
Marie I agree _chichen_ is delicious
Marie ok chichen? Thats what exactly again?
Marie i
Actually its correctly said gyros. Souvlaki is a totally different thing.
I love lamb gyro!!! I'll try the chicken!
@ΒΑΣΙΛΗΣ ΙΩΑΝΝΟΥ u clearly have not seen the rest of the world, beef and lamb are the go to choices for gyro meats
If you broil the chicken in a pan you get more browning, not just one crispy outer layer
Favorite food by far
Elllaa gyros or döner but greeek gyros is the beeesssst
blackhill billy are you stupid? Gyros is fake of döner
I used this recipe and the chicken started burning on the outside so I had to cover it with aluminum foil. Also it only takes 1-1.5 hours to make
thanks for the tip, I guess it would also work to wrap it in the aluminum for the first 45 mins or so and then leave it open for another 15 mins?
after baking the chicken i saw that juice coming out from the chicken
it was so nice to see
I loved it very much
Made the recipe it was amazing so tasty and affordable to make
It feels more like shawarma than gyros.
Yeah same I love shawarmas they are the best people actually make near my home
They have alot of similarities the only difference is the bread/pita call it whatever
@@AstolfoMyWaifu.
@@lightsaber2.033 ???
It's very similar because the Ottomans spread it all over their region. This is how it reached Greece.
This is Greek gyros. One of our national food in Greece!
Just made it. But instead of baking it, I bbq'd it on medium high for about twenty. Perfection😘👌Better than any take out I've had. Thanks a bunch. Will be saving this.
Ps that tzatziki sauce is the glue that brings it all together.
Looks delish!
What, no "Oh Yes!"
He protecc
He attacc
But most importantly

Very nice, plus the music is emotionally spot on
It tasted amazing. It’s become one of the favourite chicken dishes in your house .

CrazyIceCream why
CrazyIceCream bitch who the fuck is you I'm part Arabic you got a problem
As for the Greek yogurt, Do you use plain non-fat?
I would assume, but I just wanted to be sure.
plain full fat. that's what gets the chicken really tender
@@lilybit7716 Sounds Good
I used non-fat and chicken breast instead of chicken thighs, the end result is drier than what I expected
@@fatimacastro8247 Because you used Chicken Breast
YASSSS.... THANK YOU TASTY!
love it!
Made this for dinner the other night. Easy and delicious. The chicken is nicely seasoned and easy to make, and the Tzatziki Sauce was a great compliment to it. Did use less lemon (only a tablespoon and a half) for the Tzatziki Sauce. Will make again.
laurelmcf1 how did you make sure the chicken is cooked throughout?
Cut it, if it ain't pink then it's cooked. Marinade the chicken overnight, it'll retain more flavor and won't dry up much.
Love Tzatziki sauce - any excuse to eat it... #TheSandwichStory #Πώςφτιάχνουμετζατζίκι
yeah the tzatziki wasn't as good as it could've been cause it wasn't my moms sooo
I did this and it was really good, however the onion softened during cooking making the tower collaps on its side. Still tasted really good tho.
I LOVE food but I definitely prefer you!!!😋
Gotta do this
This is a discount Shawarma. Great recipe tho

OKAY THAT'S IT. I am tired and sick of reading comments of greeks and turks arguing about how gyros is not greek. Everybody is being so selfish right now, like COME ON OKAY YOU CAN STAND UP FOR YOUR COUNTRY but saying that gyros is completely your country's? Childish in my opinion... I am greek and as far as i know GYROS was invented by turks and then greeks discovered it and started making it themselves with some small changes shortly after. May i also add that turks have another name for gyros... What i am trying to say is that gyros is greek because greeks claimed it and it soon became a part of their most known 《dishes》. Turks have the right to say that they invented it but hating on greeks for having a similar recipe is UNEXCEPTABLE. Please no more fighting over food.. Y'all are embarassing your countries.. Döner is Turkish and Gyros is Greek THE END
Animal Lover who even said it was greek or turkish. Yur reading comment n trying to be part of something thats not even there
moria golden uhm actually when I wrote that there were a lot of comments saying that. They could have been deleted though. I am not trying to create drama
megan thanx . yu must be an expert :)
moria golden it is spelled you. Stop saying yu or yur. Thank you.
Actually you are not correct in the last sentence. Doner is... German-Turkish. :D It was invented in Berlin.

GREEK SOUBLAKI ΚΑΙ ΤΑ ΜΥΑΛΑ ΣΤΑ ΚΑΓΚΕΛΑ💘
I made this and it tasted great, the onions I had may have been too small because I had trouble with the meat falling over so I put it in a cake pan and ended up having it fall over, half the chicken was crisp and tasty and the other half was in a strange mixture of oil and sauce. I would recommend not making the same mistake and using multiple skewers
I tried this. It's better to skewer and set the thighs upright so that all of the surface area has a chance char a bit. When you stack it like in the video, the inside marinade doesn't cook as well.
No "Oh yeah"??!!!
apart from the greek yogurt, I don't think greeks use that much of spices..
manasij chatterjee we do actually
It's not exactly the same, it has some added spices
Spice what ones?
For example, I don't think cayenne peppers are used
manasij chatterjee True that, we don't 😂😂😂
I’m making this tonight ! Ty
I was just headbanging with the music
I like turtles

Isn't it Shawrama with just another name ?
No its gyros bro
@@j4mbl979 I know it is gyros bro what I meant was that it's cooked exactly as Shawrama 😉
Yes idk how that came to be but shawrama and gyros (if not the same) are pretty similar . In Greece tho theres also pork gyros that is marinated differently . (idk if theres also pork shawrama . This thing is really hard to find in Greece -_- )
@@catto3458They both, Gyros and Shawrama come from The Mediterranean cuisine which is spread across Europe and Middle East so probably that's why the couisine is more or less the same with a bit of tweaks here and there 😉
And No there isn't any pork Shawrama, you can have Chicken or Beef majorly 🍖🍗😋
