Reference figures for a dish as it is commonly cooked — never a measurement of your plate. The range is the honest part: two kitchens make this differently. In the app, a photograph replaces the guess.

- an oven for the chips

Method
6 steps
soak · 1 hour walk awayThighs opened out flat and left in oil, lemon, garlic, paprika, oregano and salt. An hour in the fridge does most of what a whole night would.
chop · 8mPotatoes into thin chips, tomato and onion sliced. The chips go inside the wrap, not beside it — that is not a garnish anybody in Greece has ever left out.
roast · 30m walk awayChips onto an already-hot tray at 220°C, tossed once halfway, until they are browned at the edges and dry.
grill · 12mThighs onto a hot griddle whole and pressed flat, four or five minutes a side, until the outside is dark. A cut through the thickest part must show white meat and clear juices with no pink at all.
rest · 5m walk awayChicken off the heat for five minutes before it is touched. Sliced straight from the pan it leaves its juice on the board.
finish · 7mChicken sliced across into strips. Flatbreads warmed a few seconds on the griddle, yoghurt beaten with a little garlic down the middle, then chicken, chips, tomato and onion, and rolled tight in paper.
Worth knowing
The fries-in-the-wrap is not laziness but doctrine — Athens street stands assemble it that way and defend it as structural.
