Method
Add the chicken to a bowl with the oil, garlic powder, dried parsley, dried oregano, smoked paprika, and salt. Mix well and place in the fridge to marinate for an hour, if possible.
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the chicken on a lined tray and place into the oven for 15-20 minutes.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the tzatziki. Grate the cucumber and squeeze as much liquid out as possible. Transfer the cucumber to a bowl and add the Greek yoghurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, dill, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
Cut the flatbread in half and cut each half into strips. Lay the strips onto a lined tray, spray or brush each side with a little oil and sprinkle with paprika and salt. Place in the oven for 5 minutes.
Cut the tomatoes into quarters, the cucumber into small chunks and the onion into thin strips. Roughly cut the lettuce.
Split the lettuce between two bowls, top with the tomatoes, cucumber, onion, kalamata olives, chicken, tzatziki, crumbled feta, chopped dill, and the crispy flatbread strips.
Serve and enjoy!
