Print Recipe

Looking for a healthy lunch idea that travels? This low FODMAP chicken souvlaki will be the talk of your lunch table.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breasts, cut into 1″ chunks
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 0.5 tsp ground coriander
  • 0.5 tsp dried oregano
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 tbsp low FODMAP garlic-infused oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice, divided
  • 4 cups romaine lettuce, shredded
  • 0.5 cup fresh dill, chopped
  • 4 green onions – green parts only, thinly sliced
  • 4 low FODMAP pitas, 4″ in diameter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your BBQ to medium-high heat.
  2. Place 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Then add the coriander, oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. Thread the chicken pieces onto skewers and set aside.
  3. Place your tomatoes on a sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle with garlic-infused oil and salt and pepper to taste. Then fold up the edges of the foil to make a sealed pouch.
  4. Lightly brush your BBQ grill with olive oil. Place your chicken skewers and tomatoes on the grill and cook for 8 – 10 minutes (or until your chicken is cooked through), turning the skewers and shaking the tomato package occasionally. Place 1 tbsp of lemon juice in a small bowl. When the chicken is cooked, brush each skewer with lemon juice before you remove them from the grill.
  5. While your chicken and tomatoes are cooking, combine the lettuce, green onion, and dill in a large bowl. Toss them with the remaining 1 tbsp of oil and lemon juice and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
  6. Open each of your pitas and divide the lettuce mixture, tomatoes, and chicken between each pita.
