recipe

  • Step 1
    Cut the chicken thighs into 2-inch pieces & place in a mixing bowl.
  • Step 2
    Season the chicken with hot paprika, salt & pepper. Add a generous drizzle of olive oil & mix. Let the chicken marinate for 10-15 mins.
  • Step 3
    Thread the chicken onto skewers, leaving a few inches on either end.
  • Step 4
    Cut the pita into triangles & set aside.
  • Step 5
    Heat a drizzle of oil in a grill pan on medium-high heat. If using an outdoor grill, preheat to medium-high. Add the skewers & cook for 6-8 mins on each side, or until the chicken is fully cooked (165ºF internal temp).
  • Step 6
    Remove the skewers & set aside. Add the pita & grill for 1-2 mins on each side until warmed through.
  • Step 7
    Plate the skewers with the pita & a handful of spring mix. Add a squeeze of lemon (optional) & dress the lettuce to your liking. Enjoy!

Recipe tip

If you are using wooden skewers, soak them for 20-30 mins before grilling!
