Chicken Marinade

Method

Prep Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken breast, ensuring it is well coated. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2 hours.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F). Let it rest before slicing.

Make Tzatziki Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, dill, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.

Assemble Sandwich

  1. 4

    Build the Sandwich

    Warm the pita bread slightly. Spread a generous amount of tzatziki sauce on each pita, then layer with sliced chicken, shredded lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion. Fold and serve.
