Chicken Souvlaki with Warm Pita
Grilled marinated chicken breast served in a toasted whole wheat pita with creamy tzatziki and crisp garden vegetables for a refreshing crunch.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 medium whole wheat pita
0.25 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
0.25 cup cucumber
1 clove garlic
0.25 cup cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp red onion
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into 1-inch cubes and place them in a small bowl.
Whisk together the olive oil, dried oregano, sea salt, black pepper, and lemon juice; pour over the chicken and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken marinates, grate the cucumber and squeeze out any excess moisture using a paper towel.
In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, and minced garlic to create the tzatziki sauce.
Preheat a grill pan or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken cubes for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Warm the whole wheat pita in the same pan for 30 seconds on each side until soft and pliable.
Slice the cherry tomatoes and thinly shave the red onion.
Spread the tzatziki inside the pita, then stuff with the grilled chicken, tomatoes, and red onion before serving.
