Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Pinch of allspice
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 lbs boneless (skinless chicken breasts, diced into 1/2" cubes)
5 ounces nonfat plain Greek yogurt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Pinch of salt
4 pieces of pita bread
1 large cucumber (peeled and sliced)
2 large tomatoes (sliced)
1/4 cup crumbled Feta cheese

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cumin, turmeric, garlic powder, paprika, allspice, and vegetable oil. Add the diced chicken pieces and toss well to coat.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the chicken in a single layer and allow it cook for 2 minutes undisturbed. Continue to saute the chicken until cooked through, another 2-3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce by whisking together the Greek yogurt, oregano, olive oil, and salt to taste.
  • Assemble the pita sandwiches by spreading one quarter of the yogurt sauce over each of the four pitas, then topping with cooked chicken, cucumber and tomato slices, and topping with crumbled Feta cheese.

I copied this delightful recipe when I was in Italy visiting my Aunt Elsa. The refreshing sandwich filling is nicely flavored with oregano and mint. I like it tucked into chewy pita bread. -Marcia Fuller, Sheridan, Montana
