  • 1/2 cup Red Onion thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup Feta Cheese 75g, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley chopped

Equipment

  • 1 Cast Iron Skillet To achieve a deep sear on the chicken.
  • 1 Mixing Bowl For the marinade.

Method
 

Prep and Marinade
  1. Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and oregano in a bowl. Add chicken chunks and toss to coat. Let marinate for 20 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken chunks until golden-brown and cooked through (165°F).
  2. Warm flour tortillas in a dry pan until light golden-brown toasted spots appear.

Ensure the skillet is very hot before adding chicken for the best sear.
Double the tzatziki to use as a dip for veggies later!
