Marinate chicken thighs in a mixture of whole milk Greek yogurt, olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and oregano for four and a half hours.

Shred two cucumbers and strain them using cheesecloth to remove excess water.

Combine the strained cucumbers with Greek yogurt, lemon juice, salt, pepper, red wine vinegar, and olive oil to make tzatziki sauce.

Preheat the griddle for 5-7 minutes before cooking the chicken.

Remove chicken from marinade and place it on the griddle, allowing it to cook without moving it for a few minutes until it releases from the surface.

Season the chicken with additional salt and pepper while it cooks.

Flip the chicken pieces to get a char on both sides, cooking for a total of about 5-10 minutes until fully cooked.

Warm the pita bread on the griddle for a quick toast on each side.

Slice the cooked chicken into strips.

Assemble the gyros by placing chicken strips in the warmed pita bread and topping with the homemade tzatziki sauce and Greek salad.
