Ingredients
- 1 large skinless chicken breast
- rapeseed oil , for brushing
- small garlic clove , crushed
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt
- 10 cm piece cucumber , grated, excess juice squeezed out
- 2 tbsp chopped mint , plus a few leaves to serve
- 2 wholemeal pitta breads
- 2 red or yellow tomatoes , sliced
- 1 red pepper from a jar (not in oil), deseeded and sliced
Method
STEP 1
Cut the chicken breast in half lengthways, then cover with cling film and bash with a rolling pin to flatten it. Brush with some oil, then cover with the garlic, oregano and some pepper. Heat a non-stick frying pan and cook the chicken for a few mins each side. Meanwhile, mix the yogurt, cucumber and mint to make tzatziki.
STEP 2
Cut the tops from the pittas along their longest side and stuff with the chicken, tomato, pepper and tzatziki. Poke in a few mint leaves to serve. If taking to the office for lunch, pack the tzatziki in a separate pot and add just before eating to prevent the pitta going soggy before lunchtime.
And as always have a chilled day from the viking
