Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 pita breads
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by mixing olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add the chicken thighs and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the marinated chicken for 5–7 minutes on each side until golden brown (165°F/75°C).
  3. While the chicken cooks, prepare the tzatziki sauce by combining Greek yogurt, crumbled feta cheese, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.
  4. Once cooked, slice the chicken into strips. Assemble by spreading tzatziki on warm pita bread and topping with sliced chicken and fresh vegetables. Roll up and enjoy!
