Execute mythical king in US chain (7)
I believe the answer is:
dominos
'us chain' is the definition.
(US pizza takeaway chain)
'execute mythical king' is the wordplay.
'execute' becomes 'do' (doing is a kind of executing).
'mythical king' becomes 'Minos' (mythical king of Crete).
'do'+'minos'='DOMINOS'
'in' is the link.
(Another definition for dominos that I've seen is " Cloaks".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
