Ingredients
Ingredients List:
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 2 medium chicken breasts
- ½ tsp salt, to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ tsp dried basil
- 3 medium pita breads, cut into triangles
- ⅓ cup Mt Vikos Traditional Feta, crumbled
- 1 small red onion, diced
- ½ bell pepper, diced
- ½ cucumber, finely diced
- ⅓ cup black olives, sliced
- 2 tbsp parsley, roughly chopped
Tzatziki Drizzle
- 5 ounces plain greek yogurt
- ⅓ cucumber, coarsely grated
- ½ lemon, juiced
- 1 tsp garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp parsley, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
- Cook the Chicken Preheat a cast iron skillet over medium heat and add the avocado oil. Place the chicken breasts in the hot oil and season them with salt, pepper, dried oregano, and dried basil. Cook for 3–5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove the chicken from the skillet, allow it to rest for 10 minutes, then dice into bite-sized pieces.
- Make the Sauce Prepare the tzatziki sauce by whisking together all designated ingredients in a bowl until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste, if necessary.
- Toast the Pitas Arrange pita triangles in a single even layer on a dry baking sheet. Place under the broiler on high heat and broil for 3–4 minutes, or until the pitas are golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
- Assemble & Serve! Spread the toasted pita chips in a single layer on a serving platter to form the base. Top evenly with the diced chicken, crumbled feta cheese, sliced red onion, diced bell pepper, chopped cucumber, sliced black olives, and chopped fresh parsley. Drizzle generously with the prepared tzatziki sauce. Serve immediately while the components are fresh and crisp.
