Chicken Souvlaki on a Pita

This closely resembles my fave from Plaka on Fort Myer's Beach, and its based on the recipe from Cooking Light...

Chicken Souvlaki on a Pita

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and Ground Pepper
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1 inch pieces
Pita bread
Sliced red onion
Store bought Taziki sauce
Sliced tomato

1. Combine lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, salt, pepper and chicken. Marinate for a 1/2 hour.

2. Grill chicken until cooked through, preferably on skewers. Remove from skewers if used.

3. On a grill pan, heat pita bread for 4-5 minutes, flipping half way through.

4. Top pita with chicken and the rest of the stuff. Yum!
