Ingredientai

½ cup whole milk Greek yogurt

4 cloves garlic (grated or minced)

1 lemon (zest and juice)

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon sweet paprika

½ teaspoon turmeric

½ teaspoon black pepper

¼ teaspoon cinnamon

¼ - 1 teaspoon red pepper flake (spice preference)

6 medium boneless skinless chicken thighs (or 3 boneless chicken breasts, halved lengthwise)

3 cups shredded iceberg lettuce

½ cup red onion (thinly sliced)

1 beefsteak tomato (sliced)

4 large Pita flatbreads (optional for serving)

tzatziki (optional for serving)

Nurodymai

In a large bowl combine yogurt, garlic, lemon, salt, cumin, onion powder, paprika, turmeric, black pepper, cinnamon & red pepper flakes. Add chicken & coat completely. Marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes but up to overnight (do not recommend going beyond 36 hours as the yogurt will begin to break down the chicken).

Air Fryer Method:

Air fry chicken thighs in an even layer 400°F for 20 to 24 minutes, flipping halfway in a single layer, in batches as needed.

Skillet or Grill Method:

Head a skillet or grill/grill pan over medium-high heat and spray with oil. Cook the chicken about 15 to 20 minutes, turning halfway.

Serve

When done, transfer to a cutting board and slice. Build pita sandwiches or serve over salad with sliced chicken, 1/2 cup shredded lettuce, onion, 1 slice tomato and tzatziki, if desired.
