Instructions

Marinate Chicken: Combine olive oil, oregano, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and garlic. Toss with chicken and marinate for 15+ minutes.
Prepare Tzatziki: Squeeze cucumber dry. Mix with yogurt, lemon juice, dill, mint, salt, garlic. Chill for 10+ minutes.
Cook Chicken: Cook chicken in a skillet over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side, until cooked through. Rest for 5 minutes.
Warm Flatbreads: Bake flatbreads at 190°C (375°F) for 4-5 minutes, until warm.
Assemble Flatbreads: Spread tzatziki on flatbreads, top with chicken, tomato, and onion. Drizzle with olive oil.
Garnish & Serve: Sprinkle with sumac and pomegranate seeds (optional). Garnish with dill and serve immediately.

Notes

Squeezing excess moisture from the cucumber is crucial for a thick tzatziki. Using full-fat Greek yogurt results in a creamier sauce.
