Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts, cut in half horizontally to create 4 thinner breast steaks
  • 1 lemon juiced for the marinade, 1/2 lemon juiced for the Tzatziki
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 3 garlic cloves crushed
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 a cucumber sliced lengthways
  • 200g natural yogurt
  • 1 tbsp mint sauce
  • 4 pittas or flatbreads, griddled to serve
  • 1 baby gem lettuce, optional to serve
  • 1 large tomato, thinly sliced, optional to serve
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced, optional to serve

Method

  • Step 1

    In a medium bowl mix all marinade ingredients (1 lemon juiced, 4 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp sweet paprika, 3 garlic cloves crushed, 1 tbsp dried oregano) plus a pinch of salt and pepper. Once mixed, coat the chicken thoroughly and pop to one side for 30 mins.

  • Step 2

    Meanwhile, it's time to prep your tzatziki. Scrape out the seeds of your cucumber using a teaspoon and then grate the rest. Squeeze as much liquid out of your cucumber as possible.

  • Step 3

    Add the grated cucumber to a small bowl along with the natural yogurt and mint sauce, season with salt and pepper and mix.

  • Step 4

    Heat a griddle pan over a medium-high heat and add your marinated chicken (two at a time), ensuring to add a couple of tablespoons of remaining herby marinade and griddle on each side for 4 mins until cooked through. Remove from the pan and slice.

  • Step 5

    Time to get stuffing! Load your pittas/flatbreads with your thinly sliced optional extras, dollop with tzatziki, load with chicken and wrap for a taste of Greece in the comfort of your own home!
