Sick of chicken? Because, same. These steak gyros are the perfect substitute for your typical chicken dinner. Loaded with greek inspired flavors, vibrant veggies and savory sirloin, these gyros will kick anyone out of their weeknight dinner rut.
Honestly, it doesn’t get much simpler than this. Herby sirloin tips, pita bread, and veggies with my homemade tzatziki send this meal over the top.
I serve this with pita or naan bread, tzatziki and spring mix.
