Ingredients

• 14 oz extra-firm tofu
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 0.5 tsp garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 small cucumber
• 1 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 tbsp fresh dill
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 4 pieces pita bread
• 2 medium tomatoes
• 1 small red onion
• 4 lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

In a bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Add tofu strips and marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the tofu marinates, prepare the tzatziki sauce: Grate the cucumber and squeeze out excess water. In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, dill, minced garlic cloves, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined and set aside.

Step 4

Chop the tomatoes and slice the red onion thinly. Set aside for assembly.

Step 5

Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Grill marinated tofu strips for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and slightly crispy.

Step 6

Warm the pita bread slightly to make it pliable.

Step 7

To assemble the gyro, spread a generous layer of tzatziki sauce on each pita bread, add lettuce leaf, layer with grilled tofu strips, add sliced tomatoes, and red onion.

Step 8

Wrap the pita tightly around the fillings and serve immediately.
