1. 1

   Marinate the Chicken

3. 3

   Slice the Chicken

   Slice the cooked chicken into thin strips.

4. 4

   Assemble the Pitas

   Warm the pita bread, then fill each with sliced chicken, fresh vegetables (like lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers), and drizzled with tahini or garlic sauce if desired.
