Ready in 15 minutes. 😋
ngredients
Crispy Chicken:
meat from 1 whole rotisserie chicken roughly shredded
3 tbsp sunflower oil
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice about the juice from half a lemon
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp honey
60 ml (1/4 cup) chicken stock
To Serve:
4 warmed Greek flatbreads
2 Romaine or little gem lettuce shredded
¼ cucumber chopped into small chunks
8 cherry tomatoes quartered
½ red onion sliced into thin slices
4 tbsp tzatziki try my homemade version
¼ tsp dried oregano
Instructions
✅Preheat the grill (or broiler if you’re in the USA) to high.
✅Place the shredded chicken in a bowl and add the oil, garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, pepper, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and honey.
✅Toss it all together until the chicken is thoroughly coated.
✅Transfer to a baking tray spread it out to an even layer.
✅Place under the grill (or broiler) and grill for 3-4 minutes, until the edges start to get crispy.
✅Now ladle over half of the chicken stock, toss everything together and place back under the grill again for another 3-4 minutes, until the edges start to get crispy.
✅Repeat for a final time, adding the remaining stock over the chicken, tossing the chicken and placing back under the grill for a final 1-2 minutes, until the chicken is juicy but with crispy bits in there too.
✅Turn off the grill and put the chicken to one side.
✅Place warmed Greek flatbreads on plates. Top with shredded lettuce, cucumber pieces, chopped tomatoes and sliced red onion. Then spoon the chicken on top of the lettuce, in a line, down the centre of the flatbreads.
✅Spoon over tzatziki and sprinkle on dried oregano, then roll up the flatbreads (you can secure with some foil or baking parchment) and serve.
