Default More food! Chicken Zorba

Ingredients:

Chicken breast (1 per person)
Pitta bread (2 per person)
Lemon juice
Coriander, cumin and tumeric
Mint
Lettuce, cucumber and onion
Houmous
Natural yoghurt
Oil

Prep:

Chop up the chicken and sling it in a bowl with the spices, lemon juice and mint. Mix it up and leave it to soak in. I leave it about ten minutes but you could do it for longer.



Chop up some cucumber (I forgot it, doh!) and raw onion and tear up some lettuce. Put it in a bowl for later. Mix equal parts houmous (I use the one with olives chopped up in it) with yoghurt to make what I call 'gunk'. Also put this in a dish for after the chicken is cooked.




Cooking:

Heat the oil and cook the chicken through.



The tumeric is what gives it the nice yellow colour. I used all dry spices and mint, but fresh mint would be better. I actually have some in the garden but it's wet out and I'm a wuss.

Empty the chicken into a bowl and pop the pitta breads in the toaster. With any luck they'll inflate and go a little crispy on the outside. Cut the edge off lengthways to make a little pitta pocket.

You should now have three bowls - one with salad, one with chicken and one with gunk. Stuff the pitta to bursting in any manner you deem necessary. I put lettuce on the bottom layer to prevent leakage.



Scoff readily.

Should you fancy it afterwards, have a scone or some free chocolates you got in exchange for doing a lame questionnaire. I'll be having both!
