Another tasty weight watcher recipe

This one is from weightwatchers.com This is so good Hope wants me to make it for her to take to Academy.

Chicken Souvlaki Sandwich
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
1 Tbsp. honey
2 med. garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp. olive oil
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 4 4oz pieces
1/2 cup plain fat-free yogurt
1/2 cup cucumber, shredded
1 Tbsp. fresh dill, chopped
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
4 large whole wheat pitas, halved

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a shallow baking pan, whisk together lemon juice, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, oil and oregano; add chicken and turn to coat.
Bake until chicken is cooked through, about 25-30 minutes, spooning sauceover chicken once or twice during cooking. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine yogurt, cucumber, dill and garlic powder. When chicken is cool enough to handle, slice each piece crosswise into thin strips and place inside pita pocket halves. Spoon 2 tablespoons of yogurt sauce into each pita half. Yields 2 halves per serving.

Note: you don't have to use pita, you can use regular bread. Also I would make the cucumber sauce while the chicken is cooling. The cucumbers tend to "water" the sauce.

When I find myself motivated in the kitchen again, I'll give this recipe a whirl.
