3 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
3 TBSP fresh Tarragon, minced
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thigs, cut into strips
Cooking Spray

Instructions
In a medium glass bowl, combine yogurt, garlic, taragon and lemon juice; add chicken and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours or more.
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a non-stick baking sheet with cooking spray. Remove chicken from refrigerator; scrape off excess yogurt and place chicken on prepared baking sheet. Bake until cooked through, flipping once, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine sauce ingredients in a small bowl; stir well.
Heat a skillet or stove top grill pan over medium heat. Take Pita and brush with a small amount of olive oil. Warm in pan for 30 to 60 seconds on each side.
Make a slit in each pita, spread sauce on the inside then fill each with equal amounts chicken, tomato, lettuce, onion and top with a little more sauce. Enjoy!
