INGREDIENTS
1 whole wheat pita bread (60g)
4 ounces chicken breast (113g)
1/4 cup marinara sauce (60g)
1 cup mixed vegetables (bell pepper, red onion, spinach - approx. 90g)
1/4 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese (28g)
1 teaspoon olive oil (4.5g)
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Season the chicken breast lightly with Italian seasoning. In a non-stick skillet, add olive oil over medium heat and cook the chicken until lightly browned (about 4-5 minutes per side) until just cooked through. Then shred the chicken into bite-size pieces.
On a baking sheet, lightly crisp the whole wheat pita bread in the oven for 3-4 minutes until just firmed up.
Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the pita bread.
Top with shredded chicken, then evenly distribute the mixed vegetables over the chicken.
Sprinkle the part-skim mozzarella cheese on top.
Return the assembled pita to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and slightly bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
