Instructions
Creating Chicken Pitas with Herby Ranch is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by preheating your grill or skillet over medium heat. While it heats up, season the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
2. Cook the Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
3. Make the Herby Ranch Dressing: In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, chopped dill, chopped parsley, and lemon juice. Mix well until all ingredients are combined and set aside.
4. Slice the Chicken: Once the chicken has rested, slice it into thin strips.
5. Assemble the Pitas: Warm the pita breads slightly, then layer with shredded lettuce, sliced cucumbers, halved cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
6. Add Chicken: Place the sliced chicken on top of the veggies in each pita.
7. Drizzle with Dressing: Generously drizzle the herby ranch dressing over the chicken and veggies.
8. Serve: Enjoy your Chicken Pitas with Herby Ranch while they’re fresh!
