Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread the 1 lb frozen fries on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crispy, about 25 minutes, shaking halfway.

  2. Step 2

    While fries bake, slice the 1 tomato and 0.5 red onion into thin rings. Toss with 4 cups romaine, 0.5 cup olives, and 0.25 cup pepperoncini in a large bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Drizzle the salad with 2 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat and set aside.

  4. Step 4

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 1 lb gyro meat and cook, breaking it up, until browned and heated through, about 8 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Divide the fries and salad between plates. Top with the cooked gyro meat and serve immediately.

  6. Step 6

    Optional: add a squeeze of lemon or a dollop of tzatziki if you have them.
