Ingredients
  

yogurt-garlic sauce

  • ½ cup plain full-fat yogurt
  • 1 medium clove garlic minced
  • salt

Assemble

  • Oil for frying
  • 1 pita bread
  • Torn lettuce 6-8 cups
  • Handful cherry tomatoes
  • ½ medium cucumber sliced
  • Chunk of feta crumbled
  • Some thinly sliced red onion
  • Handful of olives
  • Handful of fresh parsley leaves
  • Shredded cooked chicken I used rotisserie
  • Lemon wedges

Instructions
 

  • To make sauce, whisk yogurt and garlic together and season with salt.
  • Heat about 1 inch of oil in a small saucepan with deep sides until shimmering hot (350º - 375ºF if you want to bust out a thermometer).  Lay pita bread flat, then roll it up jelly-roll style, then slice thinly crosswise.  Fry in hot oil until crispy and golden, about 30 seconds. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Season immediately with salt.
  • Arrange remaining salad ingredients on two plates and squeeze some lemon juice over.  Top with pita croutons and drizzle with yogurt sauce.
