Ingredients
•
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1/2 inch strips
•
2 tablespoons ketchup
•
2 tablespoons olive oil
•
1 1/2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
•
1 teaspoon dried oregano
•
1 teaspoon mustard powder
•
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder, or to taste
•
4 pita breads, cut in half
•
2 cups mixed salad greens
•
1 cup plain yogurt
Directions
1
Arrange chicken strips side by side in a broiling pan. Stir ketchup, olive oil, white wine vinegar, oregano, mustard powder, and curry powder together in a small bowl. Pour over chicken; let marinate while preheating the broiler.
2
Broil uncovered with the meat about 6 inches from the heat source until chicken is cooked through and reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 15 minutes. Avoid overcooking, as the chicken can become stringy and dry.
3
Place hot chicken into pita pockets and spoon some of the juices from the pan over it. Top with salad greens and plain yogurt.
