Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cardamom
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1 pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 2 tablespoons Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 medium Red Onion
  • 2 medium Red Bell Peppers
  • 1 cup Peppadew Peppers
  • 1/2 cup Tahini
  • 2 cloves Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 3 tablespoons Water
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Flat Leaf Parsley
  • 4 pieces Pita Bread
  • 1 medium English Cucumber
  • 1 medium Roma Tomato

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F with the rack positioned in the center.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, ground cumin, ground cardamom, ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, and kosher salt. Add the boneless, skinless chicken breasts and toss well to coat.
  3. Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil across a large rimmed sheet pan. Arrange the chicken in the center, surrounding it with sliced red onion, red bell peppers, and peppadew peppers. Drizzle remaining olive oil over the veggies.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the veggies are tender.
  5. While it bakes, in a medium bowl, whisk together tahini, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, kosher salt, and water until smooth.
  6. Once done, assemble by filling warmed pita breads with the chicken and veggies, drizzling with tahini sauce and topping with cucumber, tomato, and parsley.

Notes
