Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken

  • 500g boneless chicken breasts, sliced or flattened
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

For the Herb Tzatziki Sauce

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • ½ cucumber, grated and squeezed dry
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill or mint, chopped
  • Salt & pepper to taste

For the Wraps

  • 4 Greek pitas or flatbreads
  • ½ cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Optional: olives, pickles, or fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Coat the sliced or flattened chicken breasts thoroughly in the marinade. Cover and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 15–30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  2. Grill Chicken: Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for 5–6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through and juices run clear. Once cooked, remove from heat and slice into thin strips for the wraps.
  3. Prepare Tzatziki Sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber (squeezed dry to remove excess water), minced garlic, lemon juice, and chopped fresh dill or mint. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes to meld flavors.
  4. Assemble Wraps: Warm the Greek pitas or flatbreads slightly to make them pliable. Layer each pita with shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, thinly sliced red onion, grilled chicken strips, crumbled feta cheese, and a generous spoonful of herb tzatziki sauce. Optionally add olives, pickles, or fresh parsley for extra flavor.
  5. Serve: Fold the wraps gently and press lightly to hold the ingredients together. Serve immediately with extra tzatziki sauce on the side for dipping or spreading.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken for up to 2 hours for more intense flavor, but avoid longer to prevent the lemon juice from breaking down the meat.
  • Remove excess water from grated cucumber to keep tzatziki thick and creamy.
  • Use fresh herbs like dill or mint for the best taste in the tzatziki sauce.
  • Warming the pita bread makes it easier to fold and less likely to crack.
  • Feel free to customize with additional toppings such as olives, pickles, or fresh parsley according to your preference.
