I love Greek food and these chicken gyros did not disappoint! Chicken is slow cooked in lemon juice, oregano and red wine vinegar and then shredded and served on pita with tomatoes, lettuce, tzatziki and FETA CHEESE! Is there anything better than feta cheese? This makes enough for a crowd so feel free to make half (or have a lot of leftovers!)

For the chicken:
3 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 T. dried oregano
1 T. lemon pepper seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
1 large onion, thinly sliced
9 cloves garlic, smashed
One large lemon, juiced
1/4 c. red wine vinegar

For the tzatziki:
2 c. plain Greek yogurt
1 seedless cucumber, shredded
1 T. dried dill
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. pepper
1 garlic clove, minced

For the sandwiches:
Pocketless pita (I used a low carb one that was 130 calories)
Diced tomatoes
Shredded romaine lettuce
Crumbled feta cheese
Tzatziki sauce

For the chicken: Place chicken in the crock pot and sprinkle with oregano, lemon pepper, salt and pepper (if your lemon pepper has salt in it go easy on the salt.) Spread sliced onion and garlic evenly on...
