Makes around 8 Pitas
Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs chicken (boneless skinless breasts or tenderloins)

- Pitas (find in the deli/cheese section on a kiosk)
- Tzatziki sauce (find in the deli/cheese section by the hummus)

Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F
- Cut bell peppers and onions into strips. Place in a bowl with 1-2 tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Throw on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
- While the peppers and onions are cooking, cut chicken into bite size pieces. Place in a bowl with seasonings of choice (I did salt, pepper, about ½ tsp ginger powder, 1 tsp dried onions, 1 tsp Italian seasoning, and about 2 tbsp Italian dressing). Mix well.
- Heat a large frying pan over medium to medium high heat. Add in about 1 tbsp olive oil. When hot, add in chicken and cook until cooked through (about 8 minutes, flipping once).
- Optional: Toast pitas with a little olive oil and sprinkle of salt.
To build your chicken pita:
- Start with tzatziki sauce along the middle of the pita, sprinkle with feta, then sprinkle with chopped spinach. Add in your chicken, peppers, and onions. Fold it up and enjoy!
