Ingredients

  • For the Tzatziki:
  • 2 cups plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • ½ English cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
  • For the Stuffed Pita:
  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie or cooked chicken
  • ½ cup tzatziki sauce
  • ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 ripe Hass avocado, sliced
  • 4 whole wheat pitas
  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the Tzatziki: In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, cucumber, garlic, dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.
  2. Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, toss shredded chicken with ½ cup of the prepared tzatziki and the sliced red onion. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Toast Pitas: Warm the pita breads in a toaster, toaster oven, or regular oven until lightly toasted. Set aside.
  4. Assemble: Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the pitas. Stuff each with avocado slices and any additional toppings if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use thick Greek yogurt and pat cucumber dry for thicker tzatziki.
  • Prep tzatziki and chicken ahead for easy assembly later.
  • For a lower-carb option, use lettuce wraps instead of pita.
  • Add chopped cucumber or tomato for extra crunch and freshness.
  • Top with olive oil, sumac, or za’atar for more Mediterranean flair.
