  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp sea salt or kosher salt

For the cucumber relish

  • 3/4 cup cherry tomatoes, cut into quarters
  • 1/2 cup green bell pepper, cut into a small dice
  • 1/4 cup red onion, sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • juice of one lemon about 2-3 tablespoons

Instructions
 

  • Marinade: In a bowl add the marinade ingredients: 3 tbsp. oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined.
    Add the chicken and make sure it is fully coated. Place the chicken in the fridge.
  • Make the cucumber relish: While the chicken in marinating, make the cucumber relish. In a bowl add the cucumber relish ingredients. Toss until well-mixed and place in the fridge.
    {If you are not using store-bough tzatziki sauce, you can quickly whip that up after you make the cucumber relish: Click here for the tzatziki sauce recipe}
  • Cook the chicken: In a large saute pan over medium heat add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Once the oil is hot add the chicken. Cook the chicken for 4 minutes. Flip the chicken oven and cook for an additional 4 minutes or until the juices run clear. You want an internal temperature of 165°.
  • Assemble: Warm pitas/flatbread in the microwave to soften them a bit. To your pita or flatbreads, evenly distribute the chicken, tzatziki sauce, and cucumber relish. 

Notes

Note: I used to love the Flat Out Wrap but they discontinued them in March of 2024! If pita bread is too heavy for you, you can also use a tortilla-- the Mission spinach tortillas are delish!
