  • 1 tsp ground cumin

  • 1/2 cucumber sliced

Substitutions

Method
 

Marinate the Chicken
  1. In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the chicken and coat it well in the marinade.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Prepare the Tzatziki Sauce
  1. In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and fresh dill.
  2. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Stir until well combined and set aside in the fridge until ready to use.
Grill the Chicken
  1. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and has a nice char.
  3. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
Assemble the Wraps
  1. Warm the pita breads or flatbreads on the grill or in a pan for 1-2 minutes.
  2. Spread a generous layer of tzatziki sauce on each pita.
  3. Add a few slices of grilled chicken, then top with cherry tomatoes, red onion, cucumber slices, and crumbled feta cheese.
  4. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill if desired.
Serve
  1. Fold or wrap the pita around the filling and serve immediately.
  2. Enjoy!
