Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, crumbled feta cheese, finely chopped red onion, minced garlic, lemon juice, and zest. Add in chopped fresh mint and parsley for flavor, then season the mixture with salt.
- Carefully slice the pita bread in half to create pockets. Open each pocket gently and fill it with the chicken and feta mixture, taking care not to overstuff.
- Heat a generous layer of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, place the stuffed pitas in the skillet and pan-fry them for about 3-4 minutes on each side.
- For an even crispier finish, preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). After frying, transfer the crispy pitas to a baking sheet and bake for another 10-15 minutes.
- Remove the pitas from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Serve warm, accompanied by a side of tzatziki sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
