Ingredients

• 4  pieces flat bread or pitas
• 2  tomatoes, cut into wedges
• 1/2  small red onion, thinly sliced
• 3/4  cup  crumbled Feta
• 1/4  cup  kalamata olives, pitted
• 1 1/2  teaspoons  dried oregano
• 1 1/2  teaspoons  dried thyme
• 1/4  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
• 2 1/2  teaspoons  red wine vinegar
• 1  tablespoon  fresh lemon juice
• 5  tablespoons  extra-virgin olive oil
• 4  boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into pieces
• 1/2  cup  plain yogurt
• 1  small cucumber, diced
• 1 1/2  tablespoons  minced fresh dill

Directions

1. Heat oven to 200° F. Wrap the bread in foil and place in oven.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, onion, Feta, and olives.
3. In a large bowl, combine the oregano, thyme, pepper, 1 ½ teaspoons of the vinegar, and the lemon juice. Slowly add 4 tablespoons of the oil, whisking constantly until incorporated.
4. Pour 2 ½ tablespoons of the vinaigrette over the tomato mixture, toss, and set aside. Add the chicken to the remaining vinaigrette, toss, and set aside.
5. Heat the remaining oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Transfer the chicken (without the liquid) to the skillet and heat, turning occasionally, until cooked through, about 5 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the yogurt, cucumber, dill, and the remaining vinegar. Spread the bread with the yogurt sauce and top with chicken and tomato salad. Fold in half, if desired.
