  • 3 cloves fresh oregano
  • 1 tsp crumbled feta
  • 1/2 cup kosher salt
  • to taste good finishing oil
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the gyro dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the gyro, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
