1 tsp dried oregano

½ tsp dried thyme

‍ Instructions

1. Prepare the Greek Chicken

1. Combine chicken with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.

2. Heat a nonstick pan on medium-high.

3. Cook chicken for 5–6 minutes per side until golden and fully done.

4. Slice into strips and set aside.

2. Make the Tahini Sauce

1. Whisk tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper.

2. Add water gradually until creamy and pourable.

3. Adjust lemon or water to taste.

3. Prepare the Veggies

Mix lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, and parsley. Keep feta separate for topping.

4. Assemble the Wraps

1. Warm pita/flatbread lightly in a pan.

2. Spread a spoonful of tahini sauce.

3. Add veggie mix.

4. Top with sliced Greek chicken.

5. Add crumbled feta and extra tahini drizzle.

6. Wrap and serve warm.

Notes

Add hummus for extra creaminess.

Grill the chicken instead of pan-cooking for a smokier taste.

Use whole-wheat pita for a healthier option.

To make dairy-free: skip the feta.

Tips

For super tender chicken, marinate for at least 20 minutes.

Don’t overfill the wrap — it’s easier to roll with less filling.

Add pickled onions for brightness.
