Chicken Shwarma

I made this to reach back to my middle eastern roots.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cucumber (cut)
• 1/4 cup low-fat plain yogurt
• 3 tablespoons tahini
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1 pound chicken breast
• 4 6-inch whole wheat pita breads
• 1 medium tomato (cut)
• 2 cups lettuce

(Serves 4)

What to do:

1. Stir cucumber, yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.

2. Combine garlic powder, curry powder, pepper, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt in another bowl. Slice chicken breast crosswise into 1/4 inch strips; toss with the spice mixture to coat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and toss to combine.

3. Grill the chicken until cooked through.

4. Spread 1/4 cup of cucumber-yogurt mixture on pita and top with the chicken, tomato, and lettuce

YUM this is so good and is very easy to make.

Today I frolicked in the snow taking water samples at Deer Creek. It was the best.
