Chicken-Salad Stuffed Pitas

By davidv

”A pita is just meant to be stuffed, and this tangy chicken salad is the perfect filling. Good-for-you ingredients like avocado boost not only the flavor, but also your health!”—David

Tip: Try substituting your favorite dressing if you don’t love Ranch. Italian, Caesar, or even honey mustard would work well too.

Preparation

Step 1

Place the diced avocado and the lime juice in a medium-size bowl and gently toss to incorporate.

Remove and discard all of the skin from the rotisserie chicken. Pull the chicken meat away from the bones and shred. Place the meat into the bowl with the avocado and discard the bones.

Add the red onion, salt, black pepper, and Ranch dressing to the bowl with the avocado-chicken mixture and fold all of the ingredients together.

Place two slices of tomato and 1/4 cup lettuce into each half of the pita. Then stuff each pita with 1/4 cup of the chicken salad.
