These Lemon and Oregano Chicken Tzatziki Wraps have takeout “chicken kebab” and “chicken gyros” vibes, but you can easily make them using simple ingredients in the comfort of your own home! Caramelised chicken and zingy, fresh tzatziki are stuffed into wraps with tomato, parsley and red onion. The chicken is first flavoured with a delicious oregano, lemon and garlic marinade, which is so good that I use it to marinate absolutely everything – especially when I want to add Mediterranean vibes to a dish. Making the homemade tzatziki is worth the extra step as it’s seriously the best tzatziki I’ve ever eaten!
You can use leftovers as a dip or to drizzle over quick salads – we love it with veggie sticks as a quick snack. Although you can use store-bought wraps, I’ve provided a super simple flatbread recipe, which I encourage you to try as this takes things to another level. When life feels busy and chaotic, I lean into this recipe, as it takes less than 20 minutes to get on the table, and it’s made in one pan – #washingupgoals. You can find this recipe in my cookbook, The Simple Dinner Edit, which is a collection of 80 easy, delicious dinner ideas and time-saving tips.
Wash and slice your salad ingredients in advance and store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days so they are ready to go when you need them. You can also make this an even faster, easier recipe by using store-bought tzatziki, or even using store-bought tabbouleh instead of the parsley, tomato and onion.
Try spreading some store-bought hummus over the wraps before you stuff them – you can still use the tzatziki if you like. You could also pair the chicken with any of the following ingredients: pesto and mayo; avocado, lettuce and mayo/aioli; avocado, lettuce and feta; leftover roast vegetables; leftover salad.
Yes! Cook the marinated chicken thighs on the barbecue over medium–high heat for 8–10 minutes, turning once halfway through.
