Ingredients

• 2 pieces Low-carb pita bread
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium, cooked and diced Chicken breast
• 1 small, diced Cucumber
• 10 halved Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 small, finely sliced Red onion
• 0.25 cup, sliced Kalamata olives
• 0.5 cup, crumbled Feta cheese
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Brush the low-carb pita bread with 1 tablespoon of olive oil on both sides.

Step 3

Place the pitas on a baking sheet and warm in the oven for about 5 minutes, or until just warmed through. Do not over-bake as they will become too crispy to stuff.

Step 4

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the diced chicken breast, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and Kalamata olives.

Step 5

Add the crumbled feta cheese and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl with the chicken and vegetables.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to make the dressing.

Step 7

Pour the dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture and gently toss to combine.

Step 8

Cut one edge of each warmed pita to open the pocket.

Step 9

Stuff each pita with the prepared Mediterranean chicken mixture. Ensure the filling is evenly distributed and compactly packed.

Step 10

Serve immediately while the pita is still warm, or wrap in foil to enjoy later as a portable meal option.
