Coming up with dinner ideas, especially after a long day, is tough! One of our favorite weeknight meals is a chicken pita. My toddler usually eats a deconstructed version, while my husband and I enjoy customizing it with our own toppings which consist of whatever is in the fridge.
Ingredients:
- Chicken breast (I air fry raw chicken at 390° F for 22 minutes, rotisserie chicken works too!)
- Salad mix
- Cucumber
- Red onion
- Cherry tomato
- Pita
- Feta (optional)
- Olives (optional)
- Greek yogurt sauce (optional)
Greek Yogurt Sauce
Depending on what I have on hand, I like to make a Greek yogurt sauce, inspired by Tzatziki Sauce, to add to my chicken pita.
In a bowl, mix 5 oz of plain Greek yogurt with three cloves of minced garlic, a pinch of dried dill, pepper, and the juice of a small lemon. Adjust the quantities to suit your taste.
If you’re looking for something more authentic, this recipe is excellent.
Instructions:
- Chop or shred your rotisserie chicken.
- Chop and prepare your vegetables.
- Warm the pita in the microwave for 10 seconds.
- Assemble the pitas.
- Enjoy!
