Tips:
- Use ripe avocados: Ripe avocados are creamier and have a richer flavor. Look for avocados that are dark green or black and slightly soft to the touch.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through but still juicy.
- Use a variety of toppings: The great thing about pita sandwiches is that you can top them with whatever you like. Some popular toppings include lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, feta cheese, and tzatziki sauce.
- Make it a meal: Pita sandwiches can be served as a light lunch or dinner. If you're serving them as a meal, you can add a side of soup or salad.
