Tips

The chicken can also be skewered and grilled weather permitting. Cooking times vary depending on the thickness of chicken and stove type.


Directions

Mix together in a bowl olive oil, white wine, oregano, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and garlic. Squeeze the juice from half of the lemon into the bowl. Pour into a zipper bag along with cubed chicken. Set aside in the fridge for at least 20 minutes.
In the mean time cube the cucumber, dice red bell pepper, and mix with the remainder of the salt and pepper. Add the yogurt, sugar, and squeeze the other half lemon over the mixture. Mix to combine.

Cook the chicken mixture with marinade over medium heat in a large skillet until done.

Serve the chicken over the lettuce and top with the cucumber/bell pepper mixture.
