Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 lb boneless pork loin chops, cut into thin bite-size strips
  • 1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1 jar (7.25 oz) roasted red bell peppers, drained, sliced
  • 4 pita fold breads (7 inch)

Steps

    In small bowl, mix mayonnaise, milk and garlic; set aside.
  • 2
    In medium bowl, mix pork, oil and pepper. Heat 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork in skillet 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pork is lightly browned and no longer pink in center. Stir in bell peppers; heat until warm.
  • 3
    Heat pita folds as directed on package. Lightly spread one side of each pita fold with garlic mixture. Spoon pork mixture over each; fold up.

  • Thinly sliced chicken can be substituted for the pork in this recipe. Cook 5 to 6 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink in center.
  • Look for flavored and whole wheat pita breads in the bakery section of the supermarket to use instead of the pita folds.
