So, mostly out of boredom, I made up a new recipe. Sort of. I'm not that creative, but it turned out really yummy. So, thought I'd share it. When we had leftover pita bread and chicken, we made chicken pizzas on pita bread with pesto, feta, etc. We also toasted pitas with a bit of olive oil and enjoyed with some hummus. Thank you, Trader Joe's! Yum. Anyways... here it is.
Ingredients:
-Pita bread (not pockets, although they'd work)
-Good grilling veggies. I cut up mushrooms, red and green bell pepper, sweet onion, tomatoes in thick slices, and zucchini (z. from the garden!).
-Chicken
-Olive Oil
-Balsalmic Vinegar
-Garlic salt or salt
-pepper
-aluminum foil
Mix some olive oil (maybe 1/4 c. or less) with probably 3/4 c. balsalmic vinegar. Sprinkle some garlic salt and pepper in, and whisk with a fork. Cut up the veggies and put them in a separate bowl from the chicken. Pour some marinade on the chicken and the rest on the veggies and let them marinate for an hour or so (at least 15 minutes).
Make a foil grilling pan by turning a 9X13 upside down and lining the pan with a few layers of tin foil. Or you could just line the inside. The foil should be in the shape of a pan. Then make a little lip around the edge. Put the veggies in there and transfer onto the grill (just the foil, not the 9X13). Grill veggies for probably 25 minutes. Stir a couple of times if you want. Add salt to taste during cooking (or before). Grill chicken (usually on low-ish for 8-10 minutes a side).
Slice chicken thinly. Spray or rub some olive oil onto pitas (I fill up an empty butter spray container with olive oil). Put on grill. Turn after a minute. Fill the warm pita bread with veggies and chicken and eat like a taco. OH, SO YUM. Tonight with the missionaries over, we added feta cheese and it was fabulous.
Buen provecho.
