  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 whole wheat pita breads
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced cucumbers
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • For the herb ranch slaw:
    • 1 cup shredded cabbage
    • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
    • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
    • Fresh dill or parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Mix olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; rub over chicken breasts. Grill or cook for 6-8 minutes per side until fully cooked. Rest, then slice into strips.
  2. Prepare the ranch slaw by mixing shredded cabbage, carrots, ranch dressing, and herbs in a large bowl. Keep refrigerated.
  3. Warm the pita breads slightly. Spread ranch slaw inside each pita, add sliced chicken, then top with lettuce, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken for more flavor if desired.
  • Can substitute grilled shrimp or tofu for chicken.
  • Cooked chicken can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Assemble pitas just before serving to prevent sogginess.
