- 1 lb Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs
- ½ Cup Vinegar-Based Salad Dressing
- Kosher Salt & Freshly Cracked Black Pepper, to taste
- 4 Pitas (or flatbread of choice)
- ½ English Cucumber, chopped
- 1 pint Cherry Tomatoes, halved
- 1 C Arugula
- ½ C Red Onion Pickles (or sliced red onion)
- 1 Ripe Avocado, cubed
- ½ C Tzatziki (store-bought or homemade)
- 4 oz Crumbled Feta
- Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then place in a shallow dish and marinate with the salad dressing for 15 minutes (up to 1 hour).
- Grill the marinated chicken thighs until they reach an internal temperature of 165 °F (74 °C).
- Allow the cooked chicken to rest, tented with foil, for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, warm the pitas and chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Assemble the pita wraps: spread 2 tablespoons of tzatziki in each pita, then divide the chicken, cucumber, tomatoes, arugula, onion, avocado, and feta among them.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Add French Fries – air-fry frozen fries to stuff into the pitas or serve on the side with extra tzatziki.
- Make It Vegetarian – swap in grilled vegetables, chickpeas, or falafel in place of chicken, and halloumi for protein.
- Go Vegan – replace chicken with roasted veggies or seasoned chickpeas, and tzatziki with hummus or vegan spread.
- Try Gluten-Free – use gluten-free pitas, flatbreads, or wraps, or serve as a salad bowl without bread.
