Healthy Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I have been making these delicious and healthy chicken lettuce wraps for a couple of years now and my family absolutely loves them! I love the fact that they take less than 30 minutes to put on the table too! Make this recipe yours by adding or omitting ingredients to your liking. I have previously made these with tofu, ground turkey, pork and beef, choose whichever protein you like! I’ve eaten these at PF Chang’s and other Oriental restaurants but I wanted to come up with a recipe and put my own twist on it so here you have it. Enjoy!

Greek Lemon Chicken Kabob with Garlic Yogurt Sauce

I’ve been yearning to share this recipe for a while now and I am just now getting to it! Better late than never right? These Greek Kabobs are quick, easy to make and super healthy! Seriously! What more could you ask for in a dish right? Kabobs of different variations are on rotation every two weeks or so in my household. If you don’t have lemons on hand, use limes! I have used both and the dish turns out great either way! You could place the skewers over a salad or in a pita pocket for a quick lunch or light dinner. I placed them on a bed of couscous this time but they also taste great with Naan or Lavash, the options are truly endless! The yogurt sauce is one I make and bottle up for my friends and family because they cannot get enough, we enjoy spice so I blend jalapeno into it as well! Be sure to check it out and let me know what you think!

Tandoori Chicken Tzatziki Pita Pockets

Tandoori Chicken Tzatziki Pita Pockets

These Tandoori Chicken Tzatziki Pita Pockets are perfect for a quick weeknight meal or even lunch. I often whip these up ahead of time and assemble them at the last minute when I’m in a hurry. The Tzatziki will stay fresh in the fridge (in an airtight sealed container) for upwards of one week although in my house it’s usually gone in a few days. Grill a batch of the tandoori chicken a few days ahead, and it can re-purposed for other dishes as well as this one. Make-ahead dishes are my favorite, time is very precious and unpredictable due to the baby, therefore make-ahead meals are definitely a lifesaver when those hunger pangs hit. I find that the Tandoori Chicken and Tzatziki complement each other very well, the cucumber and onion garnish gives the dish a welcome freshness and sumac closes the dish out with a much-needed zing! Fusion food is amazing when it works so well together, just like Indian Chinese and in this case Indian Greek. I hope you guys enjoy it!
