Mediterranean Sumac Chicken

Step 1

Place chicken tenders into a large dish, then add all the spices, lemon juice, and 1/2 tbsp olive oil.

Step 2

Rub on each chicken tender to coat well, then leave it on the countertop for 10 minutes to marinade.

Step 3

Meanwhile, heat a large skillet or frying pan (about 10" size skillet or smaller). Add 1 tablespoon of Olive oil and heat on medium-high temperature.

Step 4

Add chicken, and cook for about 5 to 6 minutes on each side. If the skillet is smaller, cook in batches.

Step 5

Place cooked chicken on kitchen paper towel and allow it to rest for 5 minutes.

Step 6

Slice mushrooms, and add them in the same skillet that you cook chicken. Cook mushrooms with a drizzle of olive oil for 5 minutes on medium-high heat, and season it with salt and add just a generous squeeze of lemon juice.

Step 7

Heat pita bread for a minute in the microwave, and serve with sauteed mushrooms, Yogurt-Cucumber Sauce, Calamata Olives, and Za'atar.

Step 8

Yogurt-Cucumber Sauce: Dice and chop all the ingredients. Mix it with the yogurt very well, and serve with chicken.
