  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 whole pita bread or flatbreads
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced thinly
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cucumber, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Start by seasoning the sliced chicken with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, dried oregano, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat evenly.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes until thoroughly cooked and slightly browned. For an even more flavorful option, consider grilling.
  3. In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, chopped cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, and crumbled feta. Mix until smooth and season with a pinch of salt if needed.
  4. Warm the pita bread in a skillet or oven. Spread a generous spoonful of Tzatziki on each. Add the cooked chicken slices, top with additional feta, and sprinkle with parsley if desired. Wrap tightly and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Keep leftover cooked chicken and Tzatziki stored separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat chicken in an air fryer for quick and crispy reheating.
  • Wrap pita breads in foil or store separately to maintain freshness.
