This recipe for a Greek Chicken Pita has gotten lots of attention from my readers. If you’re looking for a chicken pita recipe, then I hope you’ll like mine with its Greek-inspired flavors. There are so many variations on how to make these, so feel free to incorporate your own preferences when it comes to seasonings and vegetable add-ins. The good thing about piling healthy vegetable toppings on a chicken pita? Calories are not wasted, and you have a meal that is great for your family because it is packed with nutrients.
I tend to go heavy on the toppings, and indulge in a lighter, vinaigrette-style dressing (recipe link below) that offers a fresh, light taste that really highlights all the flavors, rather than being so heavy that it smothers them.
That’s it. Pretty easy, huh?
Greek Vinaigrette Dressing
I want you to try my Greek Vinaigrette Dressing, to go with this recipe. It’s great on the salad mix, and you might even want to use some for marinating the chicken while you are grilling it.
Homemade Hummus
Also, I never serve this without my Homemade Hummus Recipe. I spread it on the grilled chicken pita just like you would mustard or mayo, then I add in the salad.

Those look really yummy!!
Thanks for the hummus recipe – all the ones I’ve ever seen have tahini paste in them (which is expensive). Can’t wait to try your recipe!!!
Looks super yummy! You can also add a little plain yogurt to the hummus and it will give it a super smooth taste!!! Enjoy!!!!
I am so glad you posted this hummus recipe. I have a couple can of chickpeas, and buy hummus regularly, so I’ve been thinking I should try homemade.
Love your site, thanks again.
