Greek Chicken Pitas

Greek Chicken Pitas

Ingredients

  • Yogurt Sauce
  • 2 cups plain greek yogurt (I used coconut yogurt)

  • 1 cup cucumber diced small

  • 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh dill chopped

  • 1 clove garlic minced

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed

  • 1 tablespoons white wine vinegar

  • 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt

  • Pitas
  • Greek Dressing

  • 4 whole boneless skinless chicken breast halves

  • 4 whole pocketless pita breads warmed

  • 2 cups romaine lettuce thinly sliced

  • 1 whole roma tomato diced (seeds removed and discarded)

  • 1/4 cup red onion thinly sliced

  • 1/4 cup kalamata olives pitted and halved

  • 1/4 cup feta cheese crumbled

Directions

  • Yogurt Sauce
  • In a small bowl, combine all of the dressing ingredients and stir.
  • Yogurt dressing may be made up to 2 hours in advance.
  • Cover and refrigerate until serving. The longer it has time for the flavors to meld, the better
  • Pitas
  • Marinate the chicken breast halves in the Greek dressing for 15-20 minutes. Any longer and the lemon juice will start to break down the chicken.
  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (discarding the leftover marinade). Grill the marinated chicken breast halves for 4 minutes a side or until fully cooked. Let rest before slicing.
  • Top warm pita bread, top with sliced chicken, lettuce, tomato, red onion, sliced olives, yogurt dressing and feta cheese.
  • Serve immediately!
