Directions:

  1. In a bowl, mix together the cayenne pepper, olive oil, and a quarter of the lemon juice. Add the chicken strips, and leave to marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  2. Heat the grill until hot. Arrange the chicken strips in a shallow baking pan, and cook under the hot grill for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally.
  3. Lightly toast the pita breads, and cut open to form a pocket.
  4. Stuff each pita pocket with a handful of lettuce, onion, and red cabbage, then the chicken pieces. Dress with lemon juice, chilli sauce and garlic mayonnaise to taste. Garnish with tomato, cucumber, and a jalapeņo. Serve immediately.
Tips:
  • Use wholemeal pit a bread for an even healthier dish.
