De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

1
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper to create the seitan seasoning.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: Mix well to ensure spices are evenly distributed.
2
Toss the thinly sliced seitan with the seasoning blend in a medium bowl, ensuring each piece is coated.
Ongeveer 3 min
Tip van de kok: Use your hands for best coverage.
3
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: Ensure the pan is hot before adding seitan to get a good sear.
4
Add the seasoned seitan to the hot pan in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Tip van de kok: Overcrowding can steam the seitan instead of browning it.
5
Cook the seitan for 3-5 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and slightly crispy.
Ongeveer 8 min
Tip van de kok: Adjust heat if needed to prevent burning.
6
While the seitan cooks, prepare the tzatziki by combining dairy-free plain yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped fresh mint (if using), and salt in a small bowl.
Ongeveer 5 min
Tip van de kok: Allow the tzatziki to sit for a few minutes for flavors to meld.
7
In another bowl, combine diced tomato, diced cucumber, thinly sliced red onion, and chopped fresh dill (if using) for the salad.
Ongeveer 5 min
8
Warm the pita bread according to package instructions, either in a dry skillet, microwave, or oven.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: Warm pita is more pliable and enjoyable.
9
Assemble the gyros by spreading a generous amount of tzatziki on each warm pita.
Ongeveer 1 min
10
Pile the cooked seitan onto the tzatziki, then top with the fresh tomato and cucumber salad.
Ongeveer 1 min
11
Fold or roll the pita to create your gyros and serve immediately.
