Moroccan Chicken Pitas
- 1 package pita bread
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon coriander
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- cayenne pepper
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Italian parsley bunchs fresh, chopped
- 1 cup quinoa cooked
- 2 cans diced tomatoes petite, drained and rinsed
- 1 small yellow onion diced
- 2 lemons juiced
- 4 dates Mahjool, pitted and diced small
- 1/4 cup olive oil -, I didn't measure!
- sea salt
- 1 cup greek yogurt
- 1/2 cucumber small, diced
- 1 tablespoon mint
- 1/2 lemon juiced
- Combine everything in a small glass bowl and chill
- Combine all ingredients, from paprika down, in a small dish and stir thoroughly to combine.
- Using a meat mallet, pound the chicken breasts pretty thin - about 1/2 inch thick. Generously rub the spice mixture on all sides of chicken breasts, cover and let it sit in the refrigerator for about an hour.
- Combine all tabbouleh ingredients and adjust salt and oil to your preference. Cover and chill while the chicken is marinating - but first you should do like I did and dip a handful of pita chips in it.
- When the chicken has marinated, prepare grill to medium heat. Grill the chicken until done - at least 165u0b0. I like mine very done, even with some crispy edges.
- Half the pita bread, and split open. Fill the halves with chicken, tabbouleh and finally the yogurt sauce.
