Savor the bold, Mediterranean flavors of these Keto Pork Gyros—a low-carb twist on a classic favorite. Juicy pork tenderloin is marinated in a zesty blend of olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, garlic, and aromatic spices, then pan-seared to perfection for a golden, caramelized finish.

Topped with vibrant cherry tomatoes, cool cucumber slices, red onion, crumbled feta, and a sprinkle of fresh dill, these gyros are bursting with flavor and texture. For an extra layer of indulgence, serve with creamy tzatziki sauce on the side. Ready in just 40 minutes, this dish is perfect for a light yet satisfying weeknight dinner or a meal-prep-friendly lunch!

Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, dried oregano, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well mixed.
Add the pork slices to the marinade, tossing to ensure all the meat is evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for more flavor.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated pork strips in a single layer and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through. You may need to cook the pork in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
While the pork is cooking, prepare the toppings by halving the cherry tomatoes, slicing the cucumber and red onion thinly, and chopping the fresh dill.
Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set aside to rest.
Assemble the gyros by laying out the lettuce leaves on a clean surface. Distribute the cooked pork evenly among the leaves.
Top the pork with cherry tomato halves, cucumber slices, red onion, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped dill.
If desired, serve with a side of tzatziki sauce for dipping or drizzling over the gyros.
Fold the lettuce leaves to enclose the fillings and serve immediately. Enjoy your keto-friendly pork gyros!
