Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly oil it.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken breasts with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
  3. Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the sheet pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until fully cooked.
  4. While the chicken is baking, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, chives, dill, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until smooth.
  5. Once cooked, let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes, then slice into strips or bite-sized pieces.
  6. Warm the pita breads in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes until soft.
  7. Open each warm pita pocket, spread in the herby ranch sauce, layer with sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, romaine lettuce, and parsley.
  8. Serve immediately with extra herby ranch on the side.
