Ingredients

4 servings

  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 pound skinned, boned chicken breast, cut into thin strips
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon bottled minced garlic
  • ¼ teaspoon dried dill weed
  • ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ½ head romaine lettuce, shredded
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 2 medium Roma tomatoes, diced
  • 4 (6 inch) pita bread rounds

Instructions

  • Combine Greek yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, cinnamon, oregano, salt, nutmeg, and cloves in a plastic container or resealable bag. Add chicken strips and shake until ingredients are evenly combined and chicken is well coated. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, up to overnight.
  • When you are ready to make the sandwiches, heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add marinated chicken, and sear until golden brown on both sides and no longer pink in the centers, 8 to 10 minutes, depending on thickness of the chicken pieces.
  • While the chicken is cooking, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, dill, garlic powder, and salt in a bowl or small resealable container, stir well to blend. Taste and adjust seasonings if desired.
  • Once chicken is cooked and sauce is prepared, assemble sandwiches by dividing meat, lettuce, cucumber, and tomatoes between your pita. Add a generous smear of the yogurt sauce (to your taste preference).
