Quick Tips:

Grill Chicken for best flavor!

1. Thread the marinated chicken (and reserved red onion slices if you’d like) onto skewers.
2. Grill over medium-high heat for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly charred.

Warm the pita for more flavor and pliability!

1. Lightly brush each Joseph’s Greek Style Pocketless Pita Bread with olive oil.
2. Warm in a dry skillet for 1–2 minutes per side, or wrap in foil and heat in the oven at 350°F for 5 minutes.
