Marinate chicken: Slice 1 large chicken breast into small chunks and add to a bowl. Marinade with 1 tbs olive oil, 1 tsp curry powder, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Gyros: Combine 1 cup of self raising flour with 1 cup of greek yogurt and form into a soft ball. You can add some more flour or yogurt if needed to create a smooth, soft ball. Let sit while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
Salad: Shred 1 cup of lettuce and add to a bowl. Mix with 1 handful of shredded mint, 1 handful of shredded coriander and 1 sliced red onion. Set aside.
Tzatziki sauce: Grate cucumber and cover with 1 tsp salt. Let sit for 5 minutes, then squeeze out excess liquid. Mix with ½ cup greek yogurt, 1 tsp sugar and 1 tsp pepper. Taste & adjust seasoning if needed.
Tahini sauce: In a small bowl, combine ½ cup tahini with the juice of 1 lemon, 1 tsp crushed garlic and 1 tsp salt. Mix well, adding 1 tbs water at a time until a saucy consistency is reached.
Cook chicken: Heat a pan to high heat and add chicken. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is cooked, crispy and fragrant.
Cook gyros: Heat a large pan to medium heat. Flour the bench and cut the dough in half, then roll out into 2 large gyro flatbreads. Cook on the pan for 2 minutes per side.
Assemble: Plate up the gyros by spreading tzatziki, then shredded lettuce, cooked chicken, and top with tahini sauce
