Prepare the meat by marinating it with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper for at least 1 hour.

Preheat a grill or oven to medium-high heat.

Skewer the marinated meat onto a rotisserie or place it on a baking sheet.

Cook the meat for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked and slightly charred.

Remove the meat from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

Warm the pita bread on the grill or in the oven for about 1-2 minutes until soft.

Spread tzatziki sauce on the warm pita bread.

Layer the sliced meat on top of the tzatziki sauce.

Add sliced tomatoes, onions, and cucumbers on top of the meat.

Sprinkle with additional oregano if desired.

Fold the pita to enclose the filling and serve immediately.
