食材

Juice of 1/2 lemon

1/2 cup plain yogurt

1 1/4 teaspoons Mediterranean-spiced sea salt (, sea salt mixed with dried oregano)

1 1/2 pounds chicken tenders

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 cup tzatziki sauce (, recipe below)

4 slices flat Greek pita bread

4 cocktail tomatoes (, halved and then quartered)

1/4 red onion (, thinly sliced)

½ English cucumber (, grated, about 1 cup)

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

1 medium clove of garlic (, grated or minced, about 1/2 teaspoon)

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

1 tablespoon fresh dill (, minced)

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

步驟

Combine the lemon juice, yogurt, and sea salt in a large bowl and add the chicken tenders, tossing to coat well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight.

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add half of the chicken tenders to the pan, shaking off the excess yogurt mixture before adding to the pan. Cook the chicken tenders for about 5 minutes, undisturbed, until browned, then flip and cook for another few minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Transfer to a platter, add the additional tablespoon of olive oil and cook the remaining chicken tenders.*

Prepare the tzatziki sauce. Gather the grated cucumber together and place in a paper towel, press the water out of the cucumber and place in a medium-sized bowl. Add the yogurt, garlic, red wine vinegar, fresh dill, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 3 days.

Warm the pita bread in a toaster oven or in the microwave for 30 seconds.

Spread some of the tzatzhiki sauce onto the warm pita bread with tomatoes, sliced red onion and 2 or 3 slices of chicken tenders. Fold the pitas and wrap in parchment paper or serve immediately.
