Grilled Chicken Pita Sandwich Recipe
Last Updated on
My chicken pita bread sandwich holds people back more. Piquant, soft slices of pita with marinated chicken breast and veggies make it a lunchtime snack.
Pita bread is served at almost every meal in the Middle East. It can be used for dipping or as a pocket for making delicious sandwiches. In the Middle East, pita is made in a brick oven where very high heat can be achieved. It is very difficult to replicate in the kitchen, but this recipe with high heat is very close.
Add sauce:
There are several sauces you can pair with your pita. You can squeeze in a sauce like ketchup with a herb dispenser or dip, au jus style :
Tahini sauce : this sesame-based sauce is a staple of Middle Eastern cooking. It is usually served with shawarma. Falafel with hot sauce : yes, it says falafel. Be careful, it is definitely spicy. Tarato sauce : it’s a secret sauce that Middle Eastern restaurants won’t tell you anything about. Well, the secret is out and this sauce is as easy to make as it is delicious! Tarator combines tahini with garlic to make a fantastic sauce.
