Chicken Tzatziki Flatbread

🫓 Chicken Tzatziki Flatbread

This Chicken Tzatziki Flatbread is dinner in 25 minutes. Grilled chicken goes over warm flatbread with a thick tzatziki spread, cucumber, tomato, red onion, and feta. Extra-virgin olive oil seasons the chicken and the bread.

I love the contrast of hot chicken and cool yogurt. Char the bread, and that extra dill is not optional. 🌿

Why This Flatbread Fits an Anti-Inflammatory Mediterranean Plate

Chicken, extra-virgin olive oil, yogurt, cucumber, tomato, onion, and herbs are a Greek plate on bread. The tzatziki is the sauce. Nothing is fried.

Grill or pan-sear the chicken hot so you get the dark marks from the photo. Rest it before you slice.

Frequently Asked Questions ❓

What bread should I use? 🫓

Naan, pita, or a thin pizza crust. A store-bought flatbread with grill marks matches the photo.

Can I use store-bought tzatziki? 🥣

Yes. The homemade version is Greek yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon, and dill.

Can I make it with leftover chicken? 🍗

Yes. Warm the slices in a skillet with a little olive oil so they pick up color.

How do I keep the bread from getting soggy? 🔥

Toast it first. Spread tzatziki just before serving.

Notes & Tips 💡

  • Squeeze the grated cucumber hard or the tzatziki turns watery.
  • Extra-virgin olive oil seasons the chicken and toasts the bread.
  • If the onion is sharp, soak the slices in cold water for 5 minutes.
  • A squeeze of lemon over the finished flatbread keeps it bright.
  • This is best eaten right away while the bread is warm and the yogurt is cool.
