Ingredients

For The Brine

2 1/2 cups water
1 lemon, cut in half
1/2 bunch parsley
3 cloves garlic, with skin, crushed
2 bay leaves
1/2 tbsp The Spice Girl Kitchen Greek Seasoning
2 1/2 tbsp The Spice Girl Kitchen Tri-Salt Blend
1 tbsp whole peppercorns

For The Flatbread

2 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 large Greek Pita Breads or Flatbread of choice
1/2 tbsp The Spice Girl Kitchen Greek Seasoning
1 cup hummus, store-bought or homemade
1/2 red onion, finely sliced
1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cucumber, thinly sliced
1/2 cup feta cheese crumbles
olive oil & balsamic reduction, for drizzling

Instructions

In a small pot, add all the ingredients for the brine. Stir and bring to a boil.
As soon as the brine reaches a boil, remove from heat and set aside to cool for 1 hour. After 1 hour, strain the brine into a bowl to remove the large pieces. Place the cubed chicken in the brine and let them soak for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. While you wait, preheat the oven to 350 ℉.
Strain the chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
In a pan drizzled with olive oil over medium-high heat, add the chicken cubes. Work in batches if necessary. Be sure not to overcrowd the pan. Brown the chicken on all sides and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes).
In a sheet pan covered with foil, place your pita or flatbread and drizzle with a small amount of olive oil and Greek seasoning. Bake for 5-7 minutes or until warmed to your liking.
Remove pita or flatbread from the oven. Spread with hummus and evenly distribute your chicken pieces, red onion, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and feta cheese. Finish it off by drizzling olive oil and balsamic reduction on top. Serve and enjoy!

Can I reduce the fat content?

Yes, one easy way is to just be mindful of the amount of olive oil you are using. I factored in 3 tbsp for the entire recipe for the nutrition calculation. You can sub an olive oil drizzle in the pan for a spay olive oil to reduce to overall use of olive oil. Another easy way is to reduce the amount of hummus or feta cheese you use!
