New Year's Eve hit: Gyros salad steals the party show

Gyros salad is a real hit at every party. With its vibrant colors and rich flavor, it can enchant every guest. Kebab salad combines the simplicity of preparation with the depth of flavors that transport us to the Mediterranean world of aromatic spices and fresh vegetables. Gyros salad is also an excellent option for a New Year's Eve party. How do you make a kebab salad? We present a tried-and-tested recipe.

Preparing gyros salad starts with preparing the meat. Cut the chicken breast into small pieces and season thoroughly with a gyros spice mix and freshly ground pepper. Then, sauté in hot oil until it turns golden. It's important not to fry the chicken too long, as it will become dry.

While the meat is frying, take the time to prepare the vegetables. Shred the napa cabbage into thin strips, dice the cucumbers and tomatoes, and slice the onions into feathers. All these ingredients should be arranged in layers in a large dish. Place the meat on the bottom, add a layer of ketchup, and then layer onions, cucumbers, corn, pineapple, and cabbage. Pour it all with a sauce made from mayonnaise mixed with plain yogurt and garlic.

Gyros salad is a dish that can be easily modified according to your preferences. For those who avoid too many calories, replacing mayonnaise with thick plain yogurt is the perfect solution. This substitute reduces the dish's calories while adding lightness.

You can also experiment with other vegetables and herbs. This way, you enrich the salad with new flavors and aromas. Fans of spicier tastes can add chili peppers to kick the dish. Such modifications diversify the classic version and allow you to customize the dish to your taste preferences.

The presentation of gyros salad is just as important as its taste. You can prepare the salad in a transparent bowl to make it look impressive. This way, you can showcase each layer of the salad.

You can prepare gyros salad in advance and store it in the fridge, allowing the flavors to meld better. However, adding the sauces just before serving is worth remembering, which will prevent the vegetables from becoming soggy and keep the dish fresh.
