Ingredients

For the marinade

  • Juice from 3 fresh organic lemons
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 tbs extra virgin olive oil
  • 1-2 tbs oregano
  • Half kilo chicken breasts, chopped into kebab-sized pieces

Tzatziki

  • 475g (3x 125g boxes) organic natural (unsweetened) yogurt, greek yogurt, skyr, quark or other high protein yogurt
  • 1 tbs dry mint powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Half a cucumber, peeled and grated.

Other ingredients:

  • Rolls / wraps -  you can substitute for Greek pitta if available, or make your own, or even use a Mexican tortilla. I use a multigrain oat wrap.
  • Salad (lettuce with coriander, arugula etc) - substitute with whatever veggies you like.

Instructions

Chicken souvlaki

  1. Mix the marinade ingredients and distribute evenly to the chicken pieces in a bowl.
  2. Preheat a pan and add the chicken. Cover with the lid in the beginning for a bit in medium heat to soften the chicken.
  3. After the chicken is almost ready and lemon juice is absorbed, remove the lid, and set the heat to high and sautée until brown. And they're done.

Tzatziki

  1. Mix all the ingredients in the yogurt and stir.
  2. Save the remaining in a food container in the fridge for another day.

Serve in a plate with a salad or as a wrap with pitta or tortilla bread.
