Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 pieces whole wheat flatbreads
• 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1 piece cucumber
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 cup red onion
• 0.5 cup feta cheese
• 0.25 cup fresh parsley
• 0.25 cup kalamata olives

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, 1 clove of minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Place chicken breasts in a resealable bag and pour marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Step 3

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Step 4

While chicken is resting, brush flatbreads with the remaining olive oil and grill for 1-2 minutes per side, until lightly charred.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt with 1 minced clove of garlic, and stir well. Set aside as a sauce.

Step 6

Thinly slice the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion.

Step 7

To assemble the flatbreads, spread a layer of yogurt sauce on each grilled flatbread. Top with sliced grilled chicken, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, crumbled feta cheese, chopped fresh parsley, and sliced kalamata olives.

Step 8

Serve immediately while flatbreads are warm.
