Step 1
Place chicken breast on a cutting board. Slice horizontally into two thin cutlets, then cut into 1/2-inch strips.
Step 2
Mix oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Toss chicken strips with the spice mixture.
Step 3
Stir Greek yogurt with lemon juice and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Set tzatziki aside.
Step 4
Heat olive oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 5
Add chicken strips and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, 5-6 minutes.
Step 6
Warm pita bread in the skillet for 15 seconds per side, or wrap in a clean dish towel.
Step 7
Spread tzatziki on each warm pita. Layer with cooked chicken, tomato, red onion, and cucumber.
Step 8
Roll or fold pita and serve immediately.
