Tips & Variations
- Use any leftover roasted vegetables you have on hand or substitute with mushrooms or cherry tomatoes for added flavor.
- For extra spice, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the chicken seasoning mix.
- Make the herby ranch dressing ahead of time to let flavors meld, or swap Greek yogurt for sour cream for a richer sauce.
- Toast the pitas lightly before filling for added texture and warmth.
Storage

- Warm Pitas: During the last 5 minutes of baking, warm the pitas in the oven to make them soft and pliable for stuffing.
