Method
Step 1: Marinate the chicken
Salt the chicken thighs with a even sprinkle of salt on all sides. In a small bow, combine all of the spices with the mayo. Add the mayo to the chicken and rub it all over.
Step 2: Sear the chicken
To a ripping hot griddle or cast iron, add the chicken and until on both sides. Brown the chicken until it has reached around 170°F/ 76°C. Once the chicken is cooked, pull it off the heat and let it rest a bit before slicing.
Step 3: Mix the dressing & prep the vegetables
Combine the yogurt, garlic, spices, and lemon juice. Mix it together and taste it. Adjust the salt and other seasonings to your preference.
Step 4: Assemble the salad
Add the lettuce to a bowl and top with the tortilla strips or pita. Layer on the yogurt sauce, cucumber, tomato, feta, cheese, chicken, and pickled onion. Enjoy.
