1 packageButterball Turkey Burgers (I use sweet onion seasoned)(6 turkey burgers total)
Oil, for the grill
6Pitas
Gyro toppings: red onion, cucumber, tomato, flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
Grill the turkey burgers (straight from freezer to grill!) according to package directions. When they are finished grilling slice them in half vertically.
While the burgers grill, prepare the tzatziki sauce. Peel and then grate the cucumber. Squeeze the cucumber with paper towel or cheesecloth to get rid of extra moisture. Add to a large bowl.
Add in the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, chopped dill, red wine vinegar, lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt + pepper (to taste, I use about a half tablespoon of each). Pour into a covered dish and refrigerate. If you plan ahead, tzatziki is best after being chilled for a few hours (flavors developed more), but it will work on the gyro right away too :)
Assemble the gyros: add whatever you'd like (we do romaine lettuce, sliced tomatoes, chopped/sliced red onion, the remaining 1/2 of the English cucumber, and some chopped fresh parsley) along with the two halves of the Turkey burger and as much tzatziki sauce as you'd like!
Enjoy immediately.
Notes
Nutrition facts for this recipe are variable. (It's so highly varied on what you add to your pita and how much sauce!)
