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.
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.
Step 3
Drizzle the salad with 2 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat and set aside.
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.
Step 5
Divide the fries and salad between plates. Top with the cooked gyro meat and serve immediately.
Step 6
Optional: add a squeeze of lemon or a dollop of tzatziki if you have them.
