Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp minced fresh tarragon
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
2 cups (1/2-inch) cubes cooked chicken breast (about 1 lb)
1 1/2 cups (1/2-inch) cubes cantaloupe
1/3 cup chopped celery
4 cups mixed salad greens
1 1/3 cups thinly sliced cucumber
6 (6-inch) whole wheat pitas, cut in half

Directions:

Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl; stir with a whisk. Add chicken, cantaloupe, and celery; stir gently. Cover and chill 30 minutes.
Divide salad greens and cucumber slices evenly among pita halves. Spoon about 1/3 cup chicken salad into each pita half. Serve immediately.
Wine note: This fabulous sandwich goes well with a glass of chilled white wine. The cantaloupe's fresh fruitiness calls for a wine that's equally fresh and fruity, without any toasty oak flavors to get in the way. A dry riesling is ideal. I love the Trefethen Estate Dry Riesling 2005 from Napa Valley, California ($20). -Karen MacNeil
