  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 pita breads
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by mixing olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Coat the chicken thighs and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Prepare the tzatziki sauce by mixing Greek yogurt, feta cheese, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth.
  4. Once cooked, slice the chicken into strips. Spread tzatziki on each pita, add sliced chicken, and top with cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion.
  5. Roll up the pita and enjoy!

Notes

For best flavor, marinate the chicken longer. Use fresh vegetables and consider toasting the pita for added texture.
