When I showed you how to make your own Pita Bread, I had several requests to share my Chicken Caesar Pita recipe.
So, here is what I do to make our Chicken Caesar Pita’s:
Whenever we have this chicken for dinner, I grill a couple extra so we can make the Chicken Caesar Pita’s the next night. If I don’t have any chicken already cooked, I just cut up a couple chicken breasts and fry them up in a pan. I usually throw on a little seasoning salt. You can also bake them in the oven or grill them.
Next, it’s as simple as making a Caesar Salad, you will need:
- Romaine lettuce
- Caesar dressing (Cardini’s is our favorite, but we are currently loving the Marie’s dressing we got for FREE back in March)
- Fresh Parmesan Cheese (we love the large shaved kind)
- Pepper
- Fresh Lemon (if desired)
Cut up the lettuce, toss with the dressing and add the Parmesan cheese. Next, add a little fresh ground pepper and a squeeze of the lemon (if desired). It’s that simple! The, add the Caesar salad and chicken inside you pita and you are good to go. I love these on hot summer nights, because they are so fresh, easy and don’t make a huge mess in the kitchen.
For a little more flavor you can add the following:
- Croutons
- Bacon Bits
- Tomato
This dinner makes everyone happy at our house. I do have one child who is not a lettuce eater, so he fills his pita with chicken, cheese and ranch dressing and he is thrilled.
