Category: Sandwiches

1 lb boneless chicken breast, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup sweet onions, minced
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil
6 flat breads (6- to 7-inch pita, naan or tortillas)
1 cup (4 oz) Pepato or Asiago cheese, grated
1/2 cup black olives, diced
1/2 cup tomatoes, diced
1 cup (4 oz) Feta cheese, crumbled

Yogurt Sauce:
1 cup plain yogurt
1 tbsp mint, minced
1/2 cup cucumber, diced

Combine chicken, onion, spices and salt. Heat oil in a large skillet; add chicken mixture and cook over medium-high heat until fully cooked, about 5 to 8 minutes.

To assemble, sprinkle tops of flat bread rounds with Pepato or Asiago cheese; bake at 400ºF until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Top with chicken, olives and tomatoes. Sprinkle with Feta cheese and return to oven for 5 minutes or until toasted. Serve with yogurt sauce.

For yogurt sauce, combine yogurt, mint and cucumbers; mix well.
