INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 Whole Wheat Pita
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 cup shredded Green Cabbage
1/2 medium Carrot
1 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Peri-Peri Spice Mix
2 tsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, mix peri-peri spice mix, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
Coat the chicken breast evenly with the marinade. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, thinly slice the red bell pepper. In a separate bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, sliced red bell pepper, and grated carrot.
Mix in Greek yogurt to the slaw for a light, tangy dressing. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and squeeze any remaining lemon juice if desired.
Warm the whole wheat pita briefly on the grill or in a pan to soften it.
Slice the grilled chicken into strips and fill the pita pocket along with a generous portion of the fresh slaw.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Grilled Peri-Peri Chicken Pita with Fresh Slaw.
