1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
4 pita breads

Instructions

In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, oregano, thyme, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Add the sliced meat and marinate for at least 1 hour.
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated meat for 3-4 minutes per side or until cooked through.
Remove the meat from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice it into thin strips.
Warm the pita breads on the grill or in a pan.
To assemble the gyros, spread a generous amount of tzatziki sauce on the pita breads. Top with the sliced meat, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, and parsley.
Roll up the pita breads tightly and serve hot.
