Description
A delicious and easy meal bringing Mediterranean flavors to your kitchen with flavorful chicken and creamy feta tzatziki.
Ingredients
- 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
- Marinate the chicken by mixing olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add chicken thighs and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (165°F/75°C).
- While the chicken cooks, prepare the tzatziki sauce by mixing Greek yogurt, feta, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Once done, slice the chicken into strips. To assemble, spread tzatziki on pita, add chicken, and top with cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion. Roll and enjoy!
Notes
For more flavor, let the chicken marinate for a few hours or overnight. You can grill the chicken instead of using a skillet for a smoky taste. Adjust the garlic and feta amounts in the tzatziki to suit your taste preference.
