Chicken Souvlaki Pitas with Tahini Sauce

One of my favorite meals!  This is SO good.  Serve with Baba Ghanoush and Baked Pita Chips for a complete meal!

Ingredients:

• One recipe of Tahini Sauce
• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 pound chicken breast pieces, cut into one inch chunks
• Cucumber slices
• Shredded lettuce
• Pita bread

Directions:

1. Combine lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper, and chicken pieces in a bowl.  Toss well.
2. Spray a pan with non-stick spray, and heat on medium.
3. Add chicken mixture and cook until done.  Flipping every few minutes. 
4. Remove chicken from pan.
5. Split pitas in half and then CAREFULLY separate the bread.  It will create a pocket.
6. In the pocket put cucumbers down one side, shove lettuce in the bottom, and place chicken on top. You can add tomatoes if you want.  I am anti-raw tomatoes.  That is why mine is tomato free.
7. Top with the tahini sauce.

Enjoy!
