This Impossible™ Gyro recipe is one of our favorites. The ingredient list might look a bit daunting because it’s so long, but relax! It’s mostly spices. You’re making a richly-flavored dish here. The spice mix added to the Impossible™ Beef is a key component to making this dish sing.

The other important part of any great Gyro recipe is the Tzatziki. Tangy yogurt, bright lemon, crunchy cucumber, savory garlic, herbaceous dill, all come together with olive oil to make one of the most delectable condiments. Don't forget to season to taste with salt!

“Gyro” is a Greek word that means “to turn," and is typically made from meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie. We've adapted our recipe for cooking ease in a home kitchen–we sear the gyro meat made from plants quickly in a hot pan for just a few minutes. A delicious recipe that comes together quickly too–definitely one of our favorites!
