The chicken is cooked with onions, lemon and dill, then spooned onto warm pita bread rounds and topped with a yogurt sauce. Then the sides of the bread are folded up and the sandwich is eaten like a taco. Ingredients:
1 cup plain nonfat yogurt |
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill |
1 large garlic clove, minced |
1 teaspoon plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
1 pound skinless boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1/2-inch pieces |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 medium onions, thinly sliced |
4 pita bread rounds, heated |
Directions:
1. Stir yogurt, 2 tablespoons dill, garlic and 1 teaspoon lemon juice in small bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Place chicken in medium bowl. Sprinkle with oregano, 1 teaspoon dill and salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; sauté until brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to plate. Add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. Add onions; sauté until beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Return chicken and any juices to skillet. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Stir until heated through, about 2 minutes.
4. Arrange pita rounds on plates. Top pita rounds with chicken mixture. Spoon some yogurt sauce over chicken. Serve, passing extra sauce separately.
