Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch strips
- 2 bell peppers, sliced into strips
- 1 large red onion, sliced into wedges
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
- 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, minced
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 4 large whole-wheat pitas
- 1/2 English cucumber, sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line an extra-large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, dried oregano, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
- Add the chicken strips, bell peppers, and red onion to the bowl. Toss thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly coated in the spice rub.
- Spread the chicken and vegetable mixture onto the prepared sheet pan in a single layer, ensuring the pan isn't overcrowded to allow for maximum browning.
- Roast for 18–20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables have charred, caramelized edges.
- While the chicken roasts, prepare the herby ranch by whisking together the Greek yogurt, fresh dill, chives, grated garlic, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- During the last 2 minutes of roasting, wrap the pitas in foil and place them in the oven to warm.
- Assemble the pitas by stuffing them with the roasted chicken and vegetables, fresh cucumber slices, and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle generously with the herby ranch sauce.
