Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound cubed chicken breast
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 shallot, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • Feta cheese, for topping
  • Optional: tahini for drizzling

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine yogurt, olive oil, cubed chicken, garlic, shallots, paprika, oregano, chili flakes, and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Arrange chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, toss, and bake for another 5-10 minutes until cooked through. Broil for 1-2 minutes for charred edges.
  3. Meanwhile, combine cucumbers, avocado, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  4. For tahini sauce: blend tahini ingredients with 1/4 cup water until smooth, adding more water as needed. Season to taste.
  5. To assemble, layer lettuce in a bowl, top with baked chicken, cucumber/avocado mixture, feta cheese, and drizzle with tzatziki and tahini sauce.

Notes

For deeper flavor, sear marinated chicken in a hot skillet for 2 minutes per side before finishing in the oven.
