  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • ½ cup ranch dressing
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 6 pita breads, warmed
  • Optional: fresh dill or parsley, lemon wedges

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a sheet pan with foil or parchment if desired.
  2. In a bowl, toss chicken thighs with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper. Arrange on sheet pan in a single layer.
  3. Roast for 20–25 minutes, until internal temp reaches 165°F (74°C). Rest briefly, then slice.

  5. Warm pita breads. Fill each with sliced chicken and herby ranch slaw. Garnish with fresh herbs and lemon wedges if desired.

Notes

  • Dress slaw just before serving for maximum crunch.
  • Add cayenne or red pepper flakes to chicken for a spicy kick.
  • Store chicken and slaw separately in fridge for up to 4 days.
