I love the Mediterranean taste of oregano and garlic (if you haven't guessed yet!). This chicken sandwich recipe combines both of those flavors with a bit of lemon for delicious zesty chicken.
Good Tzatziki Sauce is a must with the chicken. The yogurt balances out the spices wonderfully.
Ingredients
- 3 pieces Pita Bread
- 6 tbsp Tzatziki Sauce
- 1 Chicken Breast
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 2 tsp Oregano
- 2 tsp Garlic
- 1 tsp Salt
Servings: sandwiches
Instructions
- Mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, and salt in a plastic bag.
- Chop up the chicken into small easily cooked pieces, and let it chicken breast marinate in the oil mixture in the fridge for at least 1-2 hours. Overnight is ideal.
- Cook the chicken pieces in a medium sized saucepan on the stove.
- Slice the cooked chicken up into nice thin slices suitable for a sandwich. Wrap up your chicken slices and about 2 tablespoons of tzatziki sauce in each piece of pita bread.
- It should make about three sandwiches.

I was inspired by Heart of Palm dip. Heart of Palm dip tastes great with pita chips, and bread, but its really greasy; not the sort of thing you can eat regularly!
I adapted the recipe, cut down on the grease, and it makes a delicious sandwich!
Ingredients
- 2-3 pieces Pita Bread
- 1 can Heart of Palm 14 oz
- 1/4 cup Onion finely chopped
- 2 tbsp Plain Yogurt or Sour Cream
- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup Mozzarella Shredded
Servings: sandwiches
Instructions
- Drain the heart of palm, and chop it up as finely as you want. Remember its going in a sandwich, so you don't want overly large chunks.
- Heat skillet over medium heat. Slightly brown your heart of palm and onion pieces. Lower heat.
- Mix in the yogurt, mayonaise, and mozzarella. Stir and cook until the veggies are well coated, and the mozzarella is melted.
- Fill your pitas with the resulting yummy heart of palm "salad." Depending on how big your pitas are, and how generous you want to be, this will make enough for 2-3 sandwiches.
Recipe Notes
Use Homemade Pita Bread for extra yumminess.
