Instructions
1. Marinate the chicken

Combine yogurt, cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and salt.
Chill until ready to use (this improves flavor).
3. Cook the chicken
Grill pan, skillet, or grill on medium-high heat.
Cook chicken 4–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Rest for a few minutes, then slice.
4. Warm the pita
Heat in a dry pan or oven until soft and lightly toasted.
5. Assemble
Spread tzatziki on the pita.
Add sliced chicken.
Top with cucumber, tomato, red onion, herbs, and feta if using.
