This recipe is a Greek-inspired take on nachos, a Tex-Mex classic. The gyro-spiced chicken is beautifully flavoured and combined with olives and local feta cheese, then laid on a bed of baked pita chips and topped with homemade tzatziki.

Instructions

Step 1

Tzatziki: In a bowl, stir together yogurt, cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, dill and salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Step 2

Baked Pita Chips: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Separate pitas around the circumference into 2 flat circles and place 3 on baking sheet. Stir together butter and oregano and brush over pitas. Sprinkle with half of the salt and bake for about 4 minutes or until golden. Repeat with remaining pitas. Let cool. (For more pita chips, increase pitas to 4 or double the recipe and use 6 pitas for added crunch to serve alongside the main dish.)

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 5 minutes or until softened. Add chicken, oregano, salt and pepper and cook, stirring for about 10 minutes or until no longer pink inside.

Step 4

Break up pita chips into large ‘chip’-size pieces and spread evenly over parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Top with chicken mixture. Sprinkle with olives and feta. Bake for about 5 minutes or until feta melts slightly. Remove from oven and drizzle with tzatziki and tomato to serve.
