Grill the following day on bbq grill until cooked to proper temperature. Cucumber sauce: Peel cucumber and cut into cubes. Put in food processor or blender. Chop to a mashed consistancy. Pour from food processor paper towels double thickness, or coffee filter and drain and discard all water. Add in a bowl remaining cucumber flesh, 1 cup greek yogurt, 1/4 tsp lemon pepper, 2 tsp lemon juice and 1/4 tsp garlic powder and place in refridgerator overnight so the flavors have a chance to blend and dry spices have a chance to soften. After grilling chicken place on pita bread, top with lettuce, onion, tomato and cucumber sauce. Cheese is optional and adds extra calories, but feta, cheddar and jack cheese are all good choices. Also try topping with baby spinach instead of lettuce.Number of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SEAOPDET2006.
