1 oz. Thinly Sliced Tomatoes
½ oz. Shredded Lettuce
1 oz. Creamy Honey Mustard Sauce (550)

Tip: Thaw Gyro slices under refrigeration (33F-40F) for 24 hours before cooking

4. Place on a heated (350-375) flat top grill cook pita bread on both sides for 20-30 seconds per side to a light brown color

Tip: Do not use any flavored oils on pita, this will change the taste of the pita. (Use liquid margarine product to add flavor to your pita bread)

5. Take pita bread from grill and place pita bread with bumpy side up on sandwich paper

Tip: Never serve pita with the bumpy side on the outside of sandwich, the appearance of the gyro is not appealing to the customer

6. Place shredded lettuce on the Warm Pita Bread

7. Take the Gyro Chicken slices from flat top grill and place on the warm pita bread

Tip: If chicken gyro slices are cold you can reheat slices on a flat top grill. Do not add any oil to slices

8. Top gyro with thinly sliced tomatoes and Honey Mustard sauce

Tip: Tomatoes should be cut into quarters and sliced approximately 1/4” thick. H

9. Wrap sandwich and serve

Tip: Sandwich should be served hot to the customer. If you make sandwiches ahead of time do not add Honey Mustard sauce, tomatoes and lettuce to gyro sandwich until you are ready to serve the gyro to your customers. Keep sandwiches covered in a steamtable pan.
