This was great! It reminded me of Jack-in-the-Box pitas. I used frozen pre-cooked diced chicken from the grocery store. It worked fine. Also, if you have someone who doesn't like onions, onion powder is fine to substitute.
Ingredients:
1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/8 cup onion, chopped
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 cup corn (drained)
1 1/2 cups chicken meat, cooked
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/8 teaspoon garlic, minced
salt and pepper
4 pita bread, sandwich breads
Directions:
1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large skillet combine onions and garlic. Sauté over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add corn, beans and chicken and sauté for another 2 minutes.
3. Drain mixture and cool slightly.
4. In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients except pitas. Mix well.
5. Stuff pitas with mixture.
6. Cook in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes.
7. Serve with salsa and sour cream. MMMMM!
