Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

4 whole wheat pita breads

1 cup Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 small cucumber, diced

1 medium tomato, diced

1/4 red onion, thinly sliced

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well in the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

    Cook the Chicken: Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is nicely charred. Once done, take it off the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.

      Prepare the Tzatziki Sauce: In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, diced cucumber, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Stir well until combined. This will serve as a refreshing sauce for your wraps.

        Slice the Chicken: After the chicken has rested, slice it thinly to make it easier to wrap in the pita.

          Assemble the Wraps: Warm the whole wheat pita breads in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or microwave them for a few seconds until warm. Spoon a generous amount of tzatziki sauce into the center of each pita, followed by slices of grilled chicken. Top with diced tomatoes, sliced red onions, and crumbled feta cheese.

            Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the topped fillings for an extra burst of flavor. Fold the pita over the fillings, and enjoy your healthy Greek chicken pita wraps!
