Mediterranean Veggie and Chicken Pitas

This chicken was unreal and it was made up of a handful of ingredients. Then I used some of my leftover creamy, green sauce and all the veggies that I think are Mediterranean-ish! I added in chopped olives, roasted red pepper, red onions, cucumber, and artichokes topped with a little goat cheese. All stuffed inside a toasted whole wheat pita and you're well on your way to an easy peasy dinner!

serving size: about 4 pitas

What you need for the chicken:
  • 1 pound chicken breast, sliced or cubed
  • 1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1.5 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup greek yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin, dried basil and ground ginger
What you need to do:
  1. Cube or slice your chicken
  2. Add all the other ingredients into a large bowl and stir to combine
  3. Add in your diced chicken and mix to coat
  4. Store in the refrigerator for at least and hour to "marinate"
  5. Heat a large pan over medium high heat and some olive oil (1-2 tablespoons)
  6. Cook your chicken for about 10 minutes or until browned and cooked through
  7. Assemble your pita!
