Ingredients

  • 3 cups pulled chicken, see notes
  • 1/2 cup greek yogurt
  • 1 Tbsp Parsley
  • 1 cup apple, chopped
  • 1/4 cup green onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp dried dill
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • salt and freshly craked pepper, to taste
  • 4 whole wheat pitas
  • Favorite greens for serving, optional

Instructions

  • Combine chicken, greek yogurt, parsley, apple, green onion, dill, and garlic powder in a large bowl. Mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper to your taste, starting with less (you can always add more!).
  • Cut about a 1/2 inch from one side of your pita. Invert the cut piece in the pita so it reinforces the base.
  • Tuck lettuce in to pita, followed by chicken salad.

Notes

Recipe Notes:
  • I like to use leftover roasted chicken in this recipe, as I find it more flavorful and juicy. Whether you roast your own or purchase a rotisserie chicken - that's up to you! You can also use poached or roasted chicken. Both work nicely here!
