INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Oregano)
1 Whole Wheat Pita
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Diced Cucumber
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Dried Dill
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, chopped fresh herbs, minced garlic, dried dill, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
Pound the chicken breast to an even thickness and place it in the marinade, ensuring it's well-coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill (or grill pan) over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and juices run clear.
Warm the whole wheat pita on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until lightly toasted.
To make the tzatziki, combine the plain nonfat Greek yogurt, finely diced cucumber, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
Assemble the plate by slicing the grilled chicken and serving it alongside the warm pita with a generous dollop of fresh tzatziki.
Enjoy your balanced and flavorful meal!
