Pita filled with chicken and vegetables is a convenient snack to take to work that you can prepare in about ten minutes. Diced chicken is slowly pan-fried in a little olive oil with sweet paprika, salt, and pepper. The pita is spread with sour cream or your favorite sauce and filled with chicken, shredded carrot and cucumber, bell pepper, and lettuce.

When filling the pita, leave about two centimeters clear around the edge so it is easy to roll up.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Grate the carrot and cucumber into slices or strips. Cut the chicken into small cubes.
Heat a little olive oil in a skillet and slowly cook the diced chicken over low heat. Add the paprika, salt, and pepper, and cook until the chicken is tender.
Spread the pita bread with your choice of sauce or sour cream and arrange the filling on top, leaving a 2 cm border clear around the edge.
Roll up all the filled flatbreads and serve.

Tip: Let the cooked chicken cool before filling the wraps, or the lettuce will wilt. When packing these as a snack, place the lettuce leaves directly on the sour cream to separate it from the juicy cucumber and keep the pita from getting soggy before lunch.
