Method

Preparing the Chicken

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    Start by preheating your grill or stovetop pan over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest.

  2. 2

    Slice the Chicken

    Once the chicken has rested, slice it into thin strips.

Making the Tzatziki Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Grate the cucumber and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel. Mince the garlic cloves.

  2. 4

    Mix the Sauce

    In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, dill, salt, and black pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are fully combined.

Assembling the Pita

  1. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Chop the lettuce, tomatoes, and onions into small pieces.

  2. 6

    Fill the Pita

    Take a piece of pita bread and carefully open it to form a pocket. Fill it with sliced chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and a generous spoonful of tzatziki sauce.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Repeat the filling process for the remaining pita breads. Serve immediately and enjoy your Greek Chicken Pitas!
