Ingredients
1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup olive oil
1 lemon (juiced, 3 tbsp)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp ground pepper
Garnish/Serve
1 small red onion, sliced
2 plum tomatoes, sliced
Tzatziki Sauce
Warm pita
Lemon slices
Instructions
Cut chicken into bite size pieces and transfer to gallon size zip top food storage bag.
Mix together the marinade ingredients and pour over chicken. Squeeze air out of bag and seal. Toss chicken to coat and marinate 45 minutes, 2 hours tops (See Note 1).
Remove chicken from marinade and thread on to metal skewers. DO NOT pack the meat chunks tightly (See Note 2).
Preheat grill to medium-high. Clean and oil your grill to prevent chicken from sticking.
Cook the chicken skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning until golden brown on all sides. Baste at least once with reserved marinade and discard remaining. Chicken is done when thermometer reads 155°F (chicken will continue to cook). Allow chicken to rest 5 minutes before serving. Heat pita on grill to warm up and soften.
Serve warm pita with divided chicken, Tzatziki Sauce, tomatoes, onion slices and squeeze lemon on top.
Notes
1. Chicken should be marinated for 45 minutes to 2 hours tops otherwise chicken will start to break down and the texture will be mushy.
2. I use metal skewers, but if using wooden ones, cut long wooden skewers to fit your grill or grill pan and then soak them in water for 30 minutes. This will prevent the wood from burning.

AMAZING FRESH Tuna Salad Recipe
Leave the can on the shelf because this fresh tuna salad is loaded with grilled ahi and vegetables in this mouthwatering recipe.
Tuna salad is known as a “bound salad” and combines roughly chopped tuna fish with vegetables and a mayonnaise dressing while being served cooled. During the late 1800s, it was common practice that no scraps would ever go to waste. Any leftover fish would be simply tossed with vegetables and mayonnaise and then served on lettuce for lunch.
While tuna hadn’t become popularized yet at this point, the gesture or technique had already been in place. So, when canned tuna showed up in the early 1900s the tuna salad sandwich became a quick staple at lunch tables across America.
Ingredients for this recipe:
• two 10 ounce fresh tuna fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 peeled and small diced red onion
• 3 small, diced stalks of celery
• 2 small, diced pickles
• 2 tablespoons roughly minced capers
• 1 finely minced garlic clove
• 4 small-diced hard-boiled eggs
• 1/3 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• salt and pepper to taste
Serves 6
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Procedures:
1. Preheat the grill to high heat, 450° to 550°.
2. Coat the tuna in olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
3. Add the tuna to the grill and cook for about 7-8 minutes per side or until dark grill marks have formed and the tuna is cooked throughout, no pink. Place the tuna on a plate and chill in the refrigerator until completely cooled.
4. In the meantime, prep all the vegetables and add them to a large bowl along with the eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
5. When the tuna is done cooling roughly mince it until it is in bite-size pieces and then add it to the bowl with the vegetable mixture.
6. Mix until everything is well mixed in and serve.
Chef Notes:
Make-Ahead – You can make this up to 1 day ahead of time.
How to Store – Cover and chill for up to 3 days. This will not freeze well.
If you plan on serving this the next day, drain off any excess liquid and re-season with salt, pepper, and toss with a little more mayonnaise.
You can substitute out the fresh tuna in this recipe with frozen-thawed, or even canned.
Feel free to pan-sear or broil the tuna if you do not have access to a grill.
