Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken Filling

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 cup sliced red onion
  • 4 pita breads

For the Dill Garlic Yogurt Sauce

  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Season and Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shredded chicken and sprinkle with paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 3–4 minutes until the chicken is warmed through and slightly golden, enhancing the flavors.
  2. Prepare the Dill Garlic Yogurt Sauce: In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, minced garlic, fresh dill, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the sauce is smooth and well blended, offering a creamy and tangy complement to the chicken.
  3. Warm the Pita Breads: Heat the pita breads in a pan or oven for about 1 minute until soft and warm, making them pliable for wrapping.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Lay a warmed pita flat and layer with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cucumber, and sliced red onion. Top with the warmed, seasoned shredded chicken to add hearty protein and spices.
  5. Add the Sauce and Serve: Generously drizzle the dill garlic yogurt sauce over the filling. Fold the pita wraps carefully and serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, vibrant flavors at their best.
