Chef's tip
Use the same weight of boneless chicken thighs and cut them as directed. For thin slices, skewers, stir-fries, or frying, cook to 165°F (74°C). For covered braises, cook about 45 minutes; for a slow cooker, use 3 to 4 hours on low.

3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1 large lemon)
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp sweet paprika
½ tsp black pepper
1 tsp kosher salt

1 cup plain whole-milk greek yogurt

Choose a plain, unsweetened dairy-free yogurt labeled Greek-style or thick for the closest texture.

1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
¼ tsp kosher salt

4 pita breads, warmed
