Ingredients

Greek Yogurt Marinade

  • ½ cup plain greek yogurt whole-milk
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried Greek oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Tzatziki Yogurt Sauce

  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt whole-milk
  • ¼ cup grated cucumber drain excess liquid with a paper towel
  • ½ tablespoons of either dried mint, dill, and/or parsley
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Greek Chicken Pita Wrap

  • 1.25- 1.5 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 10 oz cherry tomatoes
  • 6 pitas

  • ½ red onion thinly sliced

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients for Greek Yogurt Marinade. Add chicken thighs and mix until they are covered in the marinade. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1-10 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 400F. Coat a large baking sheet with nonstick spray. Spread the chicken out on the pan, and throw away any remaining marinade. Place cherry tomatoes around the chicken. Drizzle a little bit of olive oil and sprinkle salt on top of the tomatoes.
  • Bake until the thickest part of the thighs registers 165F, about 20 minutes.
  • While the chicken is cooking, combine all the ingredients for the Tzatziki Yogurt Sauce in a medium bowl. Salt to taste.
  • Once the chicken is done, let it rest for 3 minutes. Thinly slice.
  • Warm your pita and top with lettuce and red onion. Divide the chicken and tomatoes among the pita. Serve with the yogurt sauce.
