Ingredients:

Serving

2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp cayenne
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp white pepper
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tbsp vegetable oil
3 (8 oz) boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 pita breads

Directions:

Heat up your grill to medium high.
Spice Paste - mix all of the spices and oil together in a small bowl. The paste will be thick, and you can add more oil if needed to achieve a paste consistancy.
Pound your chicken breasts until they are even thickness, if needed.
Spread a thin layer of the spice paste on ONE side of the chicken ONLY. (I used my fingers to rub the spices onto the chicken.) If you do both sides, the spices will be too overwhelming. Trust me, it'll have plenty of taste. (One side is Bobby Flay's recommendation, and I'll follow it.).
Grill your chicken until cooked through - about 3-4 minutes on each side. Pull the chicken off the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice the grilled breasts, about 1/2 inch thick slices.
While the chicken is resting, warm the pitas on the grill - just until they are pliable. Top with the chicken slices and serve with grilled tomato jam and herbed yogurt.
NOTE: You can swap the herbed yogurt for plain sour cream or yogurt. DH made the herbed yogurt, and then when we ate leftovers we used sour cream, and preferred it.
