Pita and Assembly

Method

Pita and Assembly

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat the grill or oven to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill or bake for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  2. 2

    Assemble the Pita

    Warm the pita bread slightly. Slice the grilled chicken into strips and place inside the pita. Add a generous dollop of spiced yogurt, top with pickled peppers, and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
