Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Vegetables

2 pieces chicken breasts, boneless, skinless
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 cup mixed vegetables (bell peppers, onions, zucchini)

Herby Ranch Dressing

1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
Fresh herbs (parsley, dill) to taste

Additional

4 pieces pitas

Instructions

Preparation: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s at the perfect temperature for roasting. In a mixing bowl, toss the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated. Spread the seasoned chicken and mixed vegetables out in a single layer on a sheet pan, which allows for even roasting and caramelization.
Cooking: Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and vegetables are tender and caramelized. While the chicken roasts, combine Greek yogurt with ranch seasoning mix and freshly chopped parsley and dill in a bowl to create a creamy, flavorful herby ranch dressing. During the last 5 minutes of baking, warm the pitas in the oven so they become soft and pliable, perfect for stuffing.
Serving: Remove the chicken from the oven and slice into strips. Stuff each warm pita with slices of roasted chicken, the roasted vegetable medley, and a generous drizzle of the herby ranch dressing. Serve immediately to enjoy the combination of warm, fresh, and tangy flavors in every bite.

Notes

For extra crispiness, you can toast the pitas separately under the broiler instead of warming in the oven.
The ranch seasoning mix can be adjusted to taste or substituted with a homemade blend if preferred.
Feel free to swap the mixed vegetables with your favorites, such as cherry tomatoes or mushrooms.
Leftovers can be stored separately and reheated for up to 2 days for quick lunches.
