EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

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.

Made these for dinner tonight and everybody LOVED them! They were quick and easy to make. I paired them with Betty's Spicy Corn Fritters. OMG! A wonderful combination! Daughters wanted leftovers, but they ate them all tonight!! These will definitely be a regular in our house.

This is an excellent recipe! It pairs very nicely with fried plantains and/or corn! My family loved it. My daughter even ate the peppers. Great for a weeknight meal.
