Mediterranean Chopped-Chicken Pita image

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to medium-high. Brush chicken with oil; season with salt and pepper. Brush grates with oil. Grill chicken, turning once, until cooked through and lightly marked in spots, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. When cool enough to handle, cut into strips.
  • Brush both sides of each pita with oil. Grill, flipping once, until lightly marked and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Spread hummus on one side of each pita. Top with chicken, tomatoes, scallions, radicchio, and feta. Drizzle with oil; serve immediately with lemon.

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves (3 to 4 halves)
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing and drizzling
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 6-inch pitas
1 1/3 cups prepared hummus
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved (about 4 ounces)
2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced (about 4 ounces)
1/2 small head radicchio, thinly sliced (about 2 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup crumbled feta (2 ounces)
1 lemon, quartered

Marinated Mediterranean Chicken Pita and Slaw image

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken: In a mixing bowl, whisk together Marie's Original Coleslaw dressing, paprika, cumin, cinnamon, garlic, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  • Alternate pieces of chicken and onion onto each skewer, then place skewers in a shallow baking dish. Pour the marinade mixture over the chicken skewers, coating them well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
  • Prepare the slaw: In a large bowl, stir together the cabbage, onion, parsley, and Marie's Original Coleslaw dressing until thoroughly combined. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes for an extra kick of spice, if you like.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grates with a little oil to coat and grill the marinated chicken skewers. Turn skewers occasionally until chicken is fully cooked, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a platter and serve immediately with warm pita bread, slaw, sliced tomatoes, and extra Marie's Original Coleslaw dressing for drizzling.
