Ingredients

  • 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 pieces keto-friendly pita pockets
  • 1 cup cucumber, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 0.25 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 0.5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 0.25 cup black olives, sliced
  • 0.5 cup tzatziki sauce

Directions

Step 1

In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts in a sealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the chicken is well-coated and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Step 3

Preheat the grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Grill the marinated chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing them thinly.

Step 5

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the vegetables by dicing the cucumber, halving the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slicing the red onion.

Step 6

Lightly toast the keto-friendly pita pockets in a pan or toaster.

Step 7

Stuff each pita pocket with a generous portion of sliced grilled chicken, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, crumbled feta cheese, chopped parsley, and black olives.

Step 8

Drizzle with tzatziki sauce before serving.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Mediterranean Chicken Pita Sandwich!
