  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon semolina
  • Juice of 1-2 lemons
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions

  • For the Chicken:
  • Chop the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces.
  • Marinate the chicken with all the marinade ingredients and store in fridge for 1 hour.
  • Grill the chicken on each side for 1-2 minutes or until the chicken is done.
  • For the Herb Roasted Potatoes:
  • Preheat the oven to 200C/400F
  • Cut the potatoes into wedges or cubes. No need to peel them.
  • In a roasting pan add all the ingredients for the herb roasted potatoes and mix well.
  • Bake uncovered for 40-50 mins, turning the potatoes in between so that they cook evenly and form a nice crust. You can add more water (about 1/4 cup) if you feel the liquid is drying up before the potatoes are cooked through.
  • For the Tzatziki Sauce:
  • Mix all the ingredients for the tzatziki sauce and refrigerate until it's time to serve.
  • Assembling the Wraps:
  • Fill each pita bread with desired amount of chicken, salad and tzatziki sauce. Serve with herb roasted potatoes.
