These gyros are so flavorful and we love a sheet pan recipe moment! The lemon yogurt sauce and Greek lemon rice are so good too!
Prior to this recipe, I cannot remember if I've had chicken gyros. I thought a sheet pan version sounded wonderful. I made this while Nick was in training in early 2020 and was pretty obsessed because it's very Greek and I love love love anything with lemon garlic flavors and yogurt sauces and feta and hummus.
