Start by preparing the marinade. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and add them to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours for more intense flavor.
Meanwhile, make the flatbread dough. In a large bowl, mix 2 cups whole wheat flour with 1 teaspoon baking powder.
Gradually add 0.75 cup of warm water and stir until a rough dough forms.
Add 0.5 cup of plain Greek yogurt and knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes. Cover the dough and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Slice 0.5 medium red onion into thin rings, halve 1 cup of cherry tomatoes, and dice 0.5 medium cucumber.
Roll the rested dough into four equal balls and flatten each into a thin round using a rolling pin.
Grill each flatbread for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are puffed and have char marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.
Remove the chicken strips from the marinade and grill them for 5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and with grill marks.
To assemble the flatbreads, layer grilled chicken slices over each flatbread, followed by red onion, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber.
Sprinkle each flatbread with 0.25 cup of crumbled feta cheese and finish with 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley.
Slice each flatbread into halves or quarters and serve warm.
