Steps:
- For the Tomato-Red Pepper Relish: Combine the tomatoes, red pepper, onion, vinegar, oil and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Cover and let sit at room temperature while you prepare the rest of the recipe.
- For the Spicy Herbed Tzatziki: Smash the garlic cloves, remove the skins and sprinkle with salt. Work the garlic into a paste by chopping and smearing it into the cutting board with your knife blade. Put into a medium bowl along with the yogurt, cucumber, feta if using, scallion, Serrano chile, parsley, mint and lemon zest. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the Grilled Salmon: Combine the oil oregano, garlic, salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture over the salmon in a baking dish and turn to coat. Cover and marinate for 15 minutes.
- Heat a grill pan over high heat. Remove the salmon from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Grill, skin-side down, until golden brown and crisp on the first side, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook until opaque three-quarters of the way through (medium-well done), about 5 more minutes. Remove to a cutting board and let cool to room temperature. Peel off the skin and discard. Using a fork, break into bite-size pieces.
- Put some of the flaked salmon in the lettuce leaves, top with some of the relish and drizzle with the tzatziki.

Steps:
- Thaw fish if frozen. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels. Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Tear off an 18x18-inch sheet of Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil. Place onion in the center of the sheet. Top with salmon. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with the salt and black pepper. Top with lemon slices. Bring up foil sides. Double-fold top and ends to seal packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside.
- Stack flatbreads; wrap tightly in heavy duty aluminum foil.
- Grill salmon packet over medium-high heat in covered grill 12 to 14 minutes or until fish begins to flake when tested with a fork and vegetables are tender.
- Add the flatbread packet to the grill for the last 5 minutes of cooking to warm through, turning once. Remove all from grill.
- Open packets carefully by cutting along top folds with a sharp knife, allowing steam to escape. Then open top of foil. Discard lemon slices. Use two forks to pull the salmon apart into chunks.
- Assemble sandwiches by topping pita with the salmon, onions, lettuce, and tomatoes. Fold in half to serve. In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, basil, and dill. Serve over pita sandwiches.

Tips:
- To ensure the salmon is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- For a smoky flavor, grill the salmon on cedar planks or wrap it in foil packets with lemon slices and herbs.
- To make the gyros ahead of time, cook the salmon and tzatziki sauce in advance and store them separately in the refrigerator. Assemble the gyros just before serving.
- Feel free to experiment with different toppings and fillings for your gyros. Some popular options include grilled vegetables, feta cheese, and hummus.
