Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 rounds whole-wheat pita bread, cut into wedges
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 large grilled chicken breast, cooked and diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 medium cucumber, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup tzatziki sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (fresh preferred)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Optional: 1/2 cup roasted chickpeas
  • Optional: Handful baby spinach, chopped
  • Optional: Hot sauce or harissa

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice pita rounds into wedges and arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with olive oil, sprinkle with oregano and sea salt. Bake for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp. Cool for 5 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, tzatziki sauce, lemon juice, and minced garlic until smooth. Adjust salt or lemon to taste.
  3. Dice cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion. Slice olives, crumble feta, and chop parsley.
  4. Dice or shred grilled chicken breast. Warm briefly if desired.
  5. Arrange pita chips on a large platter or baking sheet. Top evenly with chicken, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta. Drizzle with yogurt-tzatziki sauce and sprinkle with parsley.
  6. Add optional toppings: roasted chickpeas, chopped spinach, or a drizzle of hot sauce/harissa.
  7. Serve immediately while chips are crisp and veggies are fresh. Prep toppings ahead and assemble just before serving for best results.

Notes

For gluten-free nachos, use GF pita or corn tortilla chips. For vegetarian, skip chicken and double chickpeas. Assemble just before serving to keep chips crisp. Use a slotted spoon for wet veggies to avoid soggy chips. Serve extra sauce on the side for dipping. Prep toppings and sauce ahead for easy assembly.
