step by step recipe
- Cut the chicken thighs into strips about 3 cm thick. Cover with olive oil.
- Mix the salt, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, hot paprika, pepper, and coriander.
- Sprinkle evenly over the chicken and mix well to cover it all. Place the chicken in a bag or covered bowl and put it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or overnight) to marinate.
- In a separate bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lemon juice, mustard, garlic powder, and salt to make the sauce for the pita bread.
- Cut the lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, and parsley into small pieces to top the pita.
- Once the chicken is marinated, place the pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket and set the machine to 180°C for 10 minutes. You may need to cook the chicken in several batches.
- Fill the pita with the cooked chicken pieces and top with our vegetables and sauce.
- Serve piping hot!
