Casserole reinvented: The irresistible chicken gyros baguette

Casseroles are a classic, although we usually opt for those with mushrooms. However, they offer a great opportunity for experimentation, as you can bake many more ingredients on a baguette.

Gyros baked casserole works wonderfully not only as a lunch option but also as a tasty dinner. It is filling, and every bite leaves you wanting more. Adults love it, and children will be tempted. It's a hit at every party, and preparing it is straightforward.

A baked baguette with garlic will disappear from the plates faster than you expect. It is much more filling than the one with just mushrooms. Although we may think of salad when we hear gyros, after trying this baked casserole, no one will miss the salad.

Ingredients:

• 1 chicken breast fillet,
• 60 ml vegetable oil,
• 1.5 tablespoons gyros seasoning,
• ½ onion,
• ½ red bell pepper,
• 140 g mushrooms.

Other ingredients:

• 2 garlic baguettes,
• 100 g shredded mozzarella,
• 2 tablespoons ketchup,
• 2 tablespoons canned corn,
• 1 tablespoon chopped parsley.

Preparation:

Step 1. Cut the chicken fillet into medium-sized cubes. Add the oil and gyros seasoning and mix.

Step 2. Finely dice the mushrooms, onion, and bell pepper. Sauté the chicken in a pan, add the chopped vegetables and mushrooms, and cook the mixture.

Step 3. Flatten the garlic baguette using a rolling pin. Press it first, then roll it out. It should be flat enough so the filling doesn't fall off.

Step 4. Place the baguette on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and bake for 15 minutes in an oven preheated to 170°C.

Step 5. After baking, place the sautéed chicken on the casserole. Sprinkle with corn and chopped parsley, and drizzle with ketchup. Gyros baked casserole tastes best when hot. Enjoy your meal!
