Instructions
- 1Slice the onion and bell pepper into thin strips; cut the eggplant and tomato into 1-inch chunks. Preheat a large skillet or Dutch oven to medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- 2Slice the chicken breast into thin strips (¼-inch thick). Add the chicken to the hot skillet and cook 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink in the center and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Transfer to a plate.
- 3In the same skillet, add the onion, bell pepper, and eggplant; cook 8–10 minutes over medium-high heat, stirring every 2–3 minutes, until the eggplant is tender and the onion begins to soften.
- 4Add the tomato chunks and cooked chicken back to the skillet. Mince the fresh garlic and stir it in along with 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, salt, and pepper; cook 3–4 minutes over medium heat until the tomatoes begin to break down.
- 5Remove from heat and fold in the crumbled feta cheese and fresh parsley until evenly distributed.
- 6Divide the hot mixture evenly into 8 airtight containers while still warm, leaving ½-inch headspace for cooling.
- 7Warm the pita bread in the skillet over medium heat, 1–2 minutes per side, until pliable.
- 8To serve, open each pita pocket and stuff with the chicken and vegetable filling using a slotted spoon to drain excess liquid.
