Chicken Pitas with Greek-Style Slaw

Pitas make quick, fresh, and simple meals with no fuss and a whole lot of flavor. Key here: Stuff. Don’t overstuff.

Keep the ingredients to a minimum—and keep them light and fresh. Here, I made a super-simple slaw with a nod to Greece, including radicchio, green cabbage, scallion, and a little feta cheese. Pair it with thin slices of lean chicken breast and a little lemon-oil vinaigrette and you’re ready to go.

Serves 4
