Place tzatziki sauce in a bowl of hot water to thaw (or refrigerate if scheduling). Cut open the chicken package and place on the roasting rack (handles facing up) in a Suvie pan. Season with 1 tbsp olive oil (2 tbsp for 4 servings), 1/4 tsp salt (1/2 tsp for 4 servings), and freshly ground black pepper. Place chicken in the Top Zone of Suvie.
Open package with pita bread and wrap tightly with a piece of aluminum foil. Place in a separate Suvie pan. Tap the package of peppers & onions against the countertop to break up any large pieces. Open peppers & onions and place in the pan next to pita bread. Season peppers & onions with 1 tbsp olive oil (2 tbsp for 4 servings), 1/4 tsp salt (½ tsp for 4 servings), and freshly ground black pepper. Place pita and peppers & onions in the Bottom Zone of Suvie. Input settings and cook now. Be sure to select 'Yes' when asked if cooking from frozen.
Set Bottom Zone: Roast at 375°F for 20 mins (for 2 and 4 servings). Set Top Zone: Roast at 350°F for 24 mins (34 mins for 4 servings).
When the cook is complete remove pans from Suvie. Let the chicken rest for 4 minutes. Carefully remove the pita breads from the aluminum foil and divide between plates. After resting, cut the chicken into small pieces, season to taste with salt and pepper. Top each pita with chicken, peppers and onion, and tzatziki sauce.
Store cooked chicken refrigerated up to 3 days; reheat gently in a skillet with a splash of water. Assemble sandwiches fresh to order to prevent sogginess.
Yes. Season and cook the chicken up to 2 days ahead, refrigerate, and reheat gently before assembling. Tzatziki also keeps for 3-4 days refrigerated.
Wrap pita in foil and warm in a 350°F oven for 5-10 minutes, or wrap in a damp towel and microwave for 20-30 seconds to keep it soft and pliable.
Yes. Grill over medium heat for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F for juicier, charred results.
Mix plain Greek yogurt with minced garlic, lemon juice, and fresh dill. Cucumber can be grated and drained into the yogurt for closer authenticity.
Use a meat thermometer to confirm 165°F internal temperature, or cut into the thickest part—juices should run clear with no pink.
