In Greece, souvlaki typically refers to skewers of grilled lamb. In America, chicken is more common, and it's often served in pita bread. Precooked chicken makes these sandwiches a snap to prepare. Serve with tabbouleh. Ingredients:
1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled feta cheese |
1/2 cup plain greek-style yogurt |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill |
1 tablespoon extravirgin olive oil, divided |
1 1/4 teaspoons bottled minced garlic, divided |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
2 cups sliced roasted skinless, boneless chicken breast |
4 (6-inch) pitas, cut in half |
1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce |
1/2 cup chopped peeled cucumber |
1/2 cup chopped plum tomato |
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion |
Directions:
1. Combine feta cheese, yogurt, dill, 1 teaspoon oil, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic in a small bowl, stirring well.
2. Heat remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add remaining 1 teaspoon garlic and oregano to pan, and sauté for 20 seconds. Add chicken, and cook for 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Place 1/4 cup chicken mixture in each pita half, and top with 2 tablespoons yogurt mixture, 2 tablespoons shredded lettuce, 1 tablespoon cucumber, and 1 tablespoon tomato. Divide onion evenly among pitas.
