Grilled Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki Sauce

When my husband and I had a brief stint in St Louis, we loved the Gyros at an eatery in the downtown area. Here's my version.

1 pound of thinly sliced boneless chicken breast (look for the chicken that is already thinly sliced)  
1 cup of Italian dressing
1 pack of pita bread
Tzatziki sauce below

Marinate the chicken in the Italian dressing for at least 1 hour. I cook on a indoor grill pan. Can use an outside grill. Cook until done and slice in to small strips.

Tzatziki Sauce

1 small cucumber
4 cloves of garlic
1 tbsp fresh mint
2 tbsp fresh dill
4 oz of Greek yogurt or sour cream
1 tbsp lemon juice
salt and pepper

Blend in a food processor until blended. Put the chicken in the pita bread and top with shredded lettuce and tzatziki sauce.
