Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, ground cumin, paprika, ground cinnamon, salt and pepper to create the marinade.
- Slice chicken breasts into thin strips and place in a resealable bag or bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken, seal, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken pieces and cook for 5–7 minutes on each side until golden-brown and cooked through.
- Warm pita bread in the skillet or wrap in foil and heat in a preheated oven at 350°F for 5-10 minutes.
- Spread tzatziki sauce on warm pita, layer cooked chicken and toppings like sliced red onion, cucumber, and tomato.
- Roll the pita tightly around the filling, cut in half if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes
Marinate chicken for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, for maximum flavor infusion. Warm pita just before assembly for best texture.
