Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Thinly slice the chicken breasts into cutlets. Combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl to create a marinade. Add chicken and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and arrange the marinated chicken in a single layer. Roast for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Prepare the herby ranch sauce by mixing Greek yogurt, fresh dill, parsley, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Warm the pita bread in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or in a skillet over low heat.
  5. Assemble the pita by spreading herby ranch sauce inside, adding roasted chicken, shredded lettuce, and cucumber slices. Drizzle extra sauce on top.
  6. Serve warm and enjoy the vibrant flavors of your Sheet Pan Chicken Pitas!
