Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 0.5 medium, finely chopped Onion
• 2 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 6 large Romaine lettuce leaves
• 1 small, grated and strained Cucumber
• 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh dill
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt (for tzatziki)
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (for tzatziki)
• 1 medium, sliced Tomato
• 0.5 small, thinly sliced Red onion

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef mixture and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 3

While the beef is cooking, prepare the cucumber tzatziki sauce. In a small bowl, combine the grated and strained cucumber, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and set aside.

Step 4

Once the beef is cooked, drain any excess fat and remove the skillet from the heat.

Step 5

To assemble the gyros, take a romaine lettuce leaf and place 2-3 tablespoons of the cooked beef in the center.

Step 6

Top the beef with a spoonful of cucumber tzatziki sauce, followed by a few slices of tomato and red onion.

Step 7

Roll up the lettuce leaf around the fillings and serve immediately.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make additional gyros. Enjoy!
