Heat a large cast-iron or other nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and brush with olive oil. Add 3 patties and cook until no longer pink in the center, 4 to ⏱️ 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a separate baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Wipe out the pan, brush with more olive oil and repeat with the remaining patties.

Cut off the tops of the pitas. Chop the remaining 1/2 cucumber and slice the remaining 1/2 red onion. Spread some tzatziki inside each pita. Fill each with lettuce, a patty, cucumber, red onion and feta. Serve with chips.
