Ingredients

Chicken

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs trimmed
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp EACH paprika, coriander, garlic powder, salt and pepper

Tomato Onion Salad

  • 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/4 red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Fries

  • 2 russet potatoes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp garlic pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt

For Assembly

  • 1 head romaine lettuce chopped
  • 4 pita quartered
  • 8 tbsp tzatziki

Instructions

  • For the Chicken: in a large bowl, combine the chicken marinade ingredients. Add the prepared chicken thighs and toss to coat the chicken well in marinade. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate for 1 hour or up to overnight.
    When ready, preheat the grill to 400°F. Grill the chicken about 5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 185°F. Remove the chicken from the grill and allow to cool for a few minutes before chopping into bite sized pieces.
  • For the Tomato Onion Salad: in a small mixing bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, sliced onion, olive oil, red wine vinegar, oregano, salt and pepper. Toss to coat the veggies in the dressing. Allow to marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  • For the Fries: cut the potato into thick cut fries. Toss them with olive oil, garlic pepper and salt. Add the fries to an air fryer basket. Air fry the fries at 375°F for 12-15 minutes, stopping a few times to toss the fries.
  • To Assemble: assemble bowls with the chopped chicken, fries, tomato onion salad, lettuce, tzatziki and pieces of pita.
