Grilled Chicken Pitas with Sesame Drizzle
Instructions
Cook:25min
Look for jars or cans of tahini on the international aisle of the supermarket. It adds nutty flavor and keeps the sandwich moist. Tahini is the stuff of life in Israel, like olive oil in Italy or butter in France. It's nutty and rich, with a slightly bitter finish and an unctuous mouthfeel akin to peanut butter. Look for tahini that's well blended (little to no separation). Refrigerate after opening, and stir well before you measure. Be patient. It may take a few minutes of stirring. If you can't find any tahini, substitute peanut butter. It's sweeter than tahini, but it will work in a pinch.
