Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized strips
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • ½ tsp chili flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp milk (to thin)
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
  • 1 tbsp fresh chives, chopped (or green onion)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 pitas (pocket or flatbread style)
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce or greens
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • Optional toppings: feta cheese, pickled onions, cucumber, hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the chicken, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion. Add olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, cumin, chili flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Mix until well-coated.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly on a large sheet pan in a single layer. This ensures everything cooks evenly.
  4. Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through. Look for a golden brown color and ensure the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
  5. While the chicken and veggies are roasting, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream or Greek yogurt, milk, parsley, dill, chives, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon juice or vinegar, salt, and pepper. Chill the herby ranch dressing in the refrigerator.
  6. After the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Warm the pitas in foil for about 5 minutes if you prefer them warm.
  7. Slice the pitas in half or leave whole, then stuff each pita with shredded lettuce, roasted chicken, veggies, and tomato slices.
  8. Drizzle the herby ranch dressing generously over the top before serving.

Notes

For a spicier variation, add jalapeños as toppings or mix in more chili flakes.
