Chicken Souvlaki Wrap Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the Chicken Marinade first. Get a large bowl. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Add the Chicken Thighs and give it a mix with your hands. Make sure you get into all the nooks and crannies. Add more oregano if necessary. Leave for 30ish minutes.
• Prepare wrap ingredients. Slice tomatoes, slice cucumber into half moon shapes, THINLY slice onions and slice the lettuce.
• Add the marinated chicken to a medium-heat skillet or frying pan for 5-7 minutes. Cook in 2 batches to avoid over crowding the pan (this should allow it to brown nicely). Once nicely browned and cooked through leave to rest on a chopping board for 5 minutes before slicing.
• Build the wraps. Toast the flatbread or tortilla on a frying pan. I place a tortilla directly onto the gas as this gives a nice charred flavour. You may prefer to heat in frying pan.
• Build the wraps - tortilla/flatbreat, then lettuce, onion, cucumber, tomatoes.and tzatziki. Be careful not to over fill, just a little of each is best. Slice the rested chicken and add to the wrap. And enjoy!
• To wrap the tortilla properly, first fold up from the bottom, the fold the two adjacent sides over.

Steps:

• Tip the chicken into a large bowl and add the marinade ingredients, along with 1 tsp salt and plenty of black pepper. Mix well, ensuring each thigh is well coated. Cover and chill for at least 3 hrs, or up to 48 hrs if you have time.
• A few hours before you want to eat, make the pitta. In a bowl, mix the flour, yeast, sugar and 1/ 2 tsp salt with your fingertips. Add 150ml lukewarm water and 2 tsp olive oil, and combine to a dough. Tip onto a work surface and knead for 8-10 mins (or use a tabletop mixer for 5 mins). Clean, then lightly oil your bowl, return the dough and cover loosely with cling film. Leave to rise for 1 hr or until nearly doubled in size.
• Divide the dough into four equal pieces. Roll out to circles, as thin as you can. Cover with sheets of oiled cling film and leave to rise for 15-20 mins.
• To make the tzatziki, halve the cucumber lengthways and scoop out the seeds. Finely chop, then combine with the remaining ingredients, along with a pinch of salt. Chill until ready to serve.
• Heat the grill to its highest setting. Line a roasting tin with foil and find 4 metal skewers long enough to sit across the top with a little space underneath. Remove the chicken from the fridge, take one thigh and thread it over 2 skewers, so it has a skewer through either side. Thread another piece of chicken on top, leaving a slight gap between each piece; you should fit 6 thighs on each pair of skewers. Position the skewers on top of the roasting tin and set aside while you finish the pittas.
• Heat a large frying pan (or two if you have them) over a medium-high heat and brush the breads with oil. Gently lift one into the pan. It should sizzle, and bubbles should appear on the surface after 1-2 mins. When the underside is golden, flip it and cook for another 2-3 mins. Continue until all the breads are cooked, wrapping them in foil as you go. Keep the bread warm in the bottom of the oven while you cook the chicken. Alternatively, cook on the barbecue for 5-8 mins, turning occasionally.
• Put the chicken under the hot grill and cook for 15-20 mins, brushing with oil and any juices from the bottom of the tin regularly, and turning halfway through cooking. Once cooked, remove from the oven and rest for 5 mins.
• Cut through each pair of skewers to make four kebabs and serve in the warm bread, with lettuce, tomato, red onion, lemon wedges and tzatziki.

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup olive oil, lemon juice, 2 cloves minced garlic, oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large resealable bag. Add chicken, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Mix yogurt, cucumber, 1 tablespoon olive oil, vinegar, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1 pinch salt together in a bowl. Refrigerate tzatziki sauce for flavors to blend, 1 to 2 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Soak wooden skewers in a bowl of water for about 15 minutes.
• Remove chicken from marinade and thread onto the soaked skewers. Discard unused marinade.
• Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently until nicely browned on all sides and chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 8 minutes per side. Serve with tzatziki sauce.

Steps:

• Place the chicken in a bowl and add oregano, garlic powder, seasoning salt and pepper.
• Toss to coat.
• Marinate in fridge for at least 30 minutes -the longer the better.
• In the meantime, if you are going to use wooden skewers, soak them for 30 minutes. This prevents them from burning on the BBQ.
• Squeeze the lemon and then add an equal amount of vegetable oil.
• Skewer chicken onto wooden or metal skewers.
• BBQ chicken skewers until done.
• Mix the oil and lemon mixture until "creamy" and drizzle over the hot chicken - do this as soon as they come off the grill.
• Serve and enjoy!
• **on a side note - if you own a George Foreman, grill this recipe works very well on it!

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and add to the pan. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes.
• In a medium bowl combine all the tzatziki sauce ingredients and set aside.
• Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. On a floured work surface, roll out each portion into 6 to 7 inches in diameter and about 1/8-inch thick.
• Preheat a grill pan or grill over medium heat.
• Grill the dough for 2 to 3 minutes per side. The pitas should be cooked through but still pliable and not too crispy.
