1. In a bowl, combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, oregano, salt and pepper. Add the chicken, onions and peppers and toss until chicken and vegetables are evenly coated. Let marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
2. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Arrange the chicken and vegetables on a baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes, toss and bake another 5-10 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Switch the oven to broil. Broil 1-2 minutes, until the chicken and vegetables begin to char.
1. Meanwhile, make the Avocado Crema Tzatziki. Combine the avocado, 1/4 cup yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, cucumber, cilantro and mint in a bowl. Use a potato masher or a fork to smash the avocado and mix everything together into a slightly chunky sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. To assemble, top each pita with lettuce then top with the warm chicken, onions and peppers. Add diced tomatoes and a hearty drizzle of avocado crema tzatziki.
Garnish with lettuce and diced tomatoes.
