Crunchy Gyro
Flavors Used:
The Crunch, the name says it all! Instead of the usual pita, we’ve swapped it out for a flour tortilla and cranked it up a notch by coating it in Doritos Flamin’ Hot Cool Ranch tortilla chips for that extra crunch! It’s a game changer, and trust me, this is not your average gyro. Now, I like to keep things simple, so I use sour cream instead of Greek yogurt. It adds a creamy richness that complements all the flavors perfectly. For my favorite toppings, I stick to the classics: just feta cheese and fresh tomatoes. But feel free to load yours up with all your favorite gyro toppings and really make it your own!

Preparation Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Make the Dorito Shell: Crush the flavored tortilla chips using a rolling pin on a flat pan.
- In a bowl, whisk the 2 eggs to make an egg wash.
- Dip each tortilla into the egg wash, then coat it with the crushed Doritos.
- Place the coated tortillas face down between the oven racks and bake for 10 minutes.
- Prepare the Gyro Meat: In a food processor, combine the lamb meat, sliced onion, and garlic (optional).
- Sprinkle generously with both Dan-O’s Original and Spicy Seasoning.
- Transfer the meat mixture to a 2-quart casserole dish and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Make the Tzatziki Sauce: Grate the cucumber using a cheese grater. Use a paper towel to soak up and squeeze out excess juice.
- In a bowl, combine the drained cucumber, sour cream, Dan-O’s Crunchy Seasoning, and lemon juice. Mix well.
- After baking, let the lamb meat cool slightly, then transfer it to a cutting board and slice it.
- Drain the juices from the casserole dish into a skillet and heat on high.
- Add the sliced lamb meat to the skillet and cook in the grease, sprinkling generously with Spicy Dan-O’s.
- Flip the strips every 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
- Take the Dorito crusted tortillas out of the oven and let them cool.
- Fill each tortilla with a generous amount of Tzatziki sauce, sliced lamb meat, and your favorite toppings like feta cheese, red onions, and tomatoes.
