Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Gather your ingredients and prepare your sheet pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
  3. Add mixed vegetables to the bowl and toss everything together until the veggies are covered in seasoning.
  4. Spread the seasoned chicken and vegetables in a single layer on a large sheet pan. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes.
  5. Check doneness with an instant-read thermometer; it should read 165°F (74°C). If needed, bake for a few extra minutes.
  6. Combine Greek yogurt, ranch seasoning, and fresh herbs in a bowl, mixing until smooth and creamy.
  7. For the last 5 minutes, place pitas on the sheet pan or in a warm oven to lightly toast.
  8. Let the chicken rest for 3-5 minutes, then slice and assemble your pitas with chicken, roasted vegetables, and herby ranch dressing.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. For freezing, wrap filled pitas in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-safe bag; these can last up to 3 months.
