Ingredients: 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts. 2 teaspoons olive oil. 1 teaspoon paprika. 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Salt and pepper to taste. 1 cup cooked lentils. 4 whole wheat pita pockets. 1/2 cup tahini sauce. 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. 1/4 cup chopped red onion. 1/4 cup chopped cucumber. 1/4 cup chopped tomatoes. 1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper. 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley. 1/4 cup hummus.

Instructions: Preheat the oven to 375F 190C. Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Place the seasoned chicken breasts on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through. Let them cool slightly and then slice them into thin strips. Warm the whole wheat pita pockets in the oven for a few minutes until they are soft and pliable. In a small bowl, mix together tahini sauce and chopped cilantro.
