Ingredients

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

Juice of 1 lemon (about 2 tablespoons)

1 tablespoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

4 pieces of warm pita bread

1 cup tzatziki sauce (homemade or store-bought)

Directions

In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add chicken strips and coat evenly. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for best flavor).
