This was my first time making chicken pita pockets and they turned out great! The recipe was easy to follow and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some leftover rotisserie chicken and it was delicious. The pita pockets were also really good.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more seasoning to the chicken.

I've tried this recipe twice now and both times the chicken has been dry. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

This recipe was a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the pita pockets were the perfect vessel for all the delicious fillings. I especially loved the tzatziki sauce - it was the perfect complement to the chicken and veggies.
