Method

  1. 1

    Combine olive oil, greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, red pepper flakes, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl to create the chicken marinade.

  2. 2

    Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, coat well, and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    While the chicken marinates, prepare the salad: dice the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and toss with dill, olive oil, and crumbled feta.

  4. 4

    Mix the tzatziki sauce by stirring together greek yogurt, minced garlic, dill juice, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.

  5. 5

    Grill or pan‑cook the marinated chicken until fully cooked and lightly charred, about 5‑7 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Warm the pita breads briefly on the grill or in a skillet.

  7. 7

    Assemble each pita by spreading a generous spoonful of tzatziki, adding sliced chicken, and topping with the fresh salad mixture.

  8. 8

    Serve immediately and enjoy the bright Mediterranean flavors.
