Ingredients

Scale

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

Vegetables

  • 4 pita breads
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced red onion
  • 1/4 cup cucumber, diced

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. Prepare the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shredded chicken and season with paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the chicken is warmed through and slightly golden to enhance the flavor.
  2. Make the Dill Garlic Yogurt Sauce: In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, minced garlic, freshly chopped dill, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Stir the mixture thoroughly until smooth and creamy.
  3. Warm the Pita Breads: Warm the pita breads in a pan or oven for about 1 minute to make them pliable and soft for wrapping.
  4. Assemble the Wraps: Fill each warmed pita with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced cucumber, sliced red onion, and the warm seasoned chicken.
  5. Finish and Serve: Drizzle the dill garlic yogurt sauce generously over the filling inside each pita. Fold the pita wraps carefully and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • For a spicier wrap, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes to the chicken seasoning.
  • You can substitute pita bread with whole wheat or gluten-free pita for dietary preferences.
  • Use Greek yogurt for a thicker, creamier sauce; regular yogurt may be thinner.
  • Leftover wraps can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours but are best enjoyed fresh to maintain crispness.
  • Adding a squeeze of extra lemon juice over the filling right before serving brightens the flavors.
