Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Nando’s PERi-PERi sauce (or any spicy sauce)
- 4 pitta breads
- 1 cup lettuce, shredded
- 1 tomato, sliced

Instructions
- Marinate the chicken breasts in the Nando’s PERi-PERi sauce for at least 30 minutes or overnight for best flavor.
- Preheat the grill or frying pan over medium heat. Cook the chicken for about 7-8 minutes on each side, until fully cooked and juices run clear.
- While the chicken is cooking, warm the pitta breads in a toaster or on a pan for a minute until soft.
- Once the chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
- Assemble the pitta by spreading mayonnaise inside each bread, adding lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and the sliced chicken.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, close the pitta, and enjoy your homemade Fino Pitta!
