Description

A quick and satisfying weeknight meal featuring juicy chicken and roasted peppers served in flatbread with creamy tzatziki.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into very thin strips
  • 3 cloves garlic, grated
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 2 to 3 bell peppers, sliced
  • 3/4 cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup grated cucumber
  • 1 small clove garlic, grated
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 diced cucumber
  • 1/2 diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup kalamata olives
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese
  • 6 pieces of flatbread (pita, naan, socca)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the chicken with garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, smoked paprika, kosher salt, curry powder, and black pepper. Let it marinate for 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, mix all the tzatziki ingredients (Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, dill, and salt) in a separate bowl and set aside.
  4. On a sheet pan, toss the sliced bell peppers with olive oil and a pinch of kosher salt.
  5. On a second sheet pan, evenly spread the marinated chicken strips.
  6. Roast both pans in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and peppers are browned.
  7. Serve the chicken and peppers alongside the tzatziki sauce and flatbread, inviting everyone to build their own pitas or bowls.
