recipe
- Step 1
Pat the chicken dry & place it in a zip top bag or lay plastic wrap overtop. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the chicken to an even 1/4-inch thickness. Remove the plastic then season all over with salt & pepper. Season well with your favorites like garlic powder, onion powder & smoked paprika. Drizzle with olive oil & rub to coat evenly. - Step 2
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat & add the chicken. Sear the first side for 3-5 min or until nicely charred & the meat releases from the pan easily. - Step 3
As the chicken grills, prepare the veggies. Clean & slice the cucumbers into thin rounds. Rinse the cherry tomatoes & slice in half. Peel & thinly slice the onion. Cut the feta into bite-sized cubes - Step 4
Once the first side of the chicken is nicely grilled, flip it over. Generously brush the grilled side with bbq sauce. Sear the second side for 3-5 more min, or until the chicken is just cooked through. Flip 1-2 more times, brushing on additional bbq sauce with each flip, until it's perfectly saucy. Remove from the heat & rest on a cutting board. - Step 5
On the same pan, grill the pita bread for 1-2 min per side or until it's toasty. Halve the pita & add it to a plate. - Step 6
Slice the grilled chicken. Plate everything together: grilled bbq chicken, fresh veggies, cubed feta & toasted pita. Drizzle the veggies & feta with a bit of olive oil. Season to taste with salt & pepper. Serve & enjoy!
