- 1.
- Combine all the ingredients for the marinade in a glass bowl, including the chicken.
- Refrigerate overnight or at least 3 hours, tossing occasionally.
- 2.
- Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl.
- This can be done up to 24 hours in advance and kept in the refrigerator, but should be done at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to blend.
- 3.
- Slice the potato into very thin matchsticks.
- For best results, soak the matchsticks in a bowl of water to reduce the starch for about 20 minutes.
- Then drain and thoroughly dry potato sticks.
- This is recommended, but not necessary.
- 4.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium low heat.
- Add the potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally until soft, about 7 minutes.
- 5.
- When potatoes are soft, turn the heat up to medium high and allow potatoes to brown, stirring only occasionally to allow them to brown evenly on all sides.
- 6.
- When potatoes are brown, remove them from the pan into the center of the tortillas.
- 7.
- Add marinated chicken to the pan and cook until no longer pink.
- It should only take about 2-3 minutes if the chicken is thinly sliced.
- 8.
- Add chicken to the tortillas and top with cucumber and tomato slices, any other garnishes desired and sauce.
- Roll up and serve
- This dish is inspired by the Greek gyro.
- Chicken is used instead of the traditional pork or lamb pressed meat in order to create a healthier version.
- Spicy flavors found in the Turkish kebab are added to give it a little extra kick and flavor!
