Method

Prepare the Chicken

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a little olive oil. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing it into thin strips.

  2. 3

    Mix the Sauce

    In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, dill, and salt to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.

Assemble the Sandwich

  1. 4

    Prepare the Pita

    Warm the pita bread in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 1-2 minutes on each side until pliable.

    Build the Sandwich

    Take a warm pita and fill it with sliced chicken, lettuce, and sliced tomato. Drizzle the tzatziki sauce on top and fold the pita over to enclose the filling.
