INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 Whole Wheat Pita
1/2 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Cucumber, diced
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Mixed Salad Greens
1/2 medium Tomato, sliced
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, then add the chicken.
Sear the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In a small bowl, combine the non-fat Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, and diced cucumber to create the tzatziki sauce. Stir well to integrate flavors.
Warm the whole wheat pita slightly in a dry skillet or microwave to make it more pliable.
Assemble the pita by layering with mixed salad greens, sliced tomato, and the pan-seared chicken strips. Drizzle or dollop the tzatziki sauce generously over the filling.
Serve immediately and enjoy this balanced, flavorful meal.
