Slow Cooker Chicken Gyros

Step 1

In a food processor, pulse onion and garlic until pureed.

Step 2

In a large bowl, stir together onion puree, ground chicken, eggs, breadcrumbs, lemon (juice and zest), thyme, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix together until well combined.

Step 3

Form into a large ball and place in a 4-quart crockpot which has been drizzled with olive oil. Cover and cook for 4-6 hours on high, or 6-8 hours on low.

Step 4

Unplug crockpot and remove lid 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the gyros to set and cut into nice slices.

Step 5

When ready to serve, remove meat from the slow cooker. Slice and serve on warmed pita bread topped with tomatoes, cucumbers, yogurt, and fresh-squeezed lemon juice. Enjoy!
