Method
4 steps- Salt the chicken thighs with a even sprinkle of salt on all sides. In a small bowl, combine all of the spices with the mayo. Add the mayo marinade to the chicken and rub it all over.
- To a ripping hot griddle or cast iron, add the chicken and sear until browned on both sides. Brown the chicken until it has reached around 170°F/ 76°C. Once the chicken is cooked, pull it off the heat and let it rest a bit before slicing.
- Combine the yogurt, garlic, spices, and lemon juice. Mix it together and taste it. Adjust the salt and other seasonings to your preference.
- Add the lettuce to a bowl and top with the tortilla strips or pita. Layer on the yogurt sauce, cucumber, tomato, feta, cheese, chicken, and pickled onion. Enjoy.
