4 skinless boneless chicken breast halves, about 6 oz (175 g) each,cut into thin strips
4 pita breads
1 small head of crispy lettuce, such as romaine or iceberg, shredded
1 onion, thinly sliced
1⁄4 head red cabbage, shredded
hot chili sauce
prepared garlic mayonnaise
1 ripe tomato, sliced
1⁄4 cucumber, sliced
whole pickled jalapeƱos, for serving
Directions
In a bowl, mix together the cayenne pepper, olive oil, and a quarter of the lemon juice. Add the chicken strips, and leave to marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Heat the grill until hot. Arrange the chicken strips in a shallow baking pan, and cook under the hot grill for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally.
Lightly toast the pita breads, and cut open to form a pocket.
Stuff each pita pocket with a handful of lettuce, onion, and red cabbage, then the chicken pieces. Dress with lemon juice, chilli sauce and garlic mayonnaise to taste. Garnish with tomato, cucumber, and a jalapeƱo. Serve immediately.
Use whole meal pitta bread for an even healthier dish.
