Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large skinless chicken breast
rapeseed oil , for brushing
small garlic clove , crushed
½ tsp dried oregano
2 tbsp Greek yogurt
10 cm piece cucumber , grated, excess juice squeezed out

2 red or yellow tomatoes , sliced
1 red pepper from a jar (not in oil), deseeded and sliced
