The smoky grilled chicken pairs perfectly with the creamy feta sauce and fresh vegetables, all wrapped in a warm whole wheat pita bread. It's a delightful combination of flavors and textures that's easy to make for a quick lunch or dinner.

Ingredients: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts. 1/4 cup olive oil. 2 tablespoons smoked paprika. 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Salt and black pepper to taste. 4 whole wheat pita breads. 1 cup creamy feta cheese. 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved. 1/2 cup cucumber, diced. 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped. 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped. 2 tablespoons lemon juice. 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil.

Instructions: For the marinade, put the garlic powder, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and olive oil in a bowl and mix them together. Put the chicken breasts in a plastic bag that can be closed again and again, and pour the marinade over them. Close the bag and rub the chicken with the marinade.
