Ingredients
- 1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest, plus 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 2 garlic cloves, finely grated 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 2-inch cubes 1/2 English cucumber, chopped 1/2 cup fat-free Greek yogurt 3 plum tomatoes, quartered 1/2 small red onion, cut 3/4 inch thick, and separated into slices 4 whole-wheat pitas Garnish: oregano leaves
Directions
Whisk together lemon zest, 1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice, half the garlic, the oregano, 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add chicken, and toss to coat. Refrigerate, covered, for 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, stir together remaining lemon juice and garlic, the cucumber, yogurt, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.
Heat grill to medium-high. Thread chicken, tomatoes, and onion onto 4 metal skewers. Brush with remaining 2 teaspoons oil, and season with pepper.
Grill skewers, turning, until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Grill pitas until charred, about 2 minutes per side.
Serve skewers with charred pitas and cucumber-yogurt sauce. Garnish with oregano leaves.
Cook’s Notes Make ahead: Cucumber-yogurt sauce can be refrigerated overnight.
