Preparation

Step 1

*Whisk* oregano, thyme, shallot, lemon zest and juice, garlic and oil together in a small bowl. *Add* chicken and *allow* to marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight, removing from fridge 1 hour before cooking.

Place chicken and its marinade in the Actifry pan and cook for 10 - 12 minutes.

Serve with the salad, tzatziki and warm flour tortillas or pita bread, squeezing a wedge of lemon over and drizzling with a few drops of best EVOO. Wrap pieces of the chicken up and top with the salad and sauce to eat - Yummy
