This chicken pita sandwich is an extremely easy and simple sandwich but very tasty. You do need to marinate the chicken at least 3 hours. I usually do it overnight.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
- 1 pocket bread round, cut in half
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- ½ cup plain yogurt
Directions
Step 1
Combine olive oil, lemon juice, salt, oregano, garlic powder, and pepper in a large resealable bag. Add chicken cubes, mix well, and allow to marinate in the refrigerator 3 hours or overnight.
Step 2
Pour chicken and marinade into a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Step 3
Stuff each half of pita pocket bread with chicken, onion, tomato, and yogurt; serve while still hot.
