Your favorite salad veggies
Pita bread
Buttermilk marinade
Pound the fillets even thinner with a meat hammer. Have the chicken between sheets of plastic wrap or it gets messy.
Marinate the chicken for 3-4 hours.
The marinade:
Buttermilk
Worcestershire sauce
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Thyme
Hot sauce
Lemon juice
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
Season the buttermilk aggressively. Eyeball the amounts.
Pound the chicken breasts flat between two sheets of plastic wrap with a meat hammer. No meat hammer? Rubber mallet, bottom of a small pot or if all else is unavailable, the side of your fist. Place the chicken in the marinade, cover with plastic and put in the fridge for 3 to 4 hours.
While that is marinating, make the tzatziki sauce. The recipe is here:

Cut up your favorite veggies. Season with salt and pepper.
Shake off the excess marinade and fry in a hot skillet (no oil) for two minutes on one side and 1-1/2 minutes on the other.
The choice here is a charred chicken or a juicy chicken that is slightly golden. I went for golden. I have had to many dry chicken gyros to want to replicate that experience.
Pile the veggies, chicken and tzatziki sauce on a pita. Fold and enjoy.
