The Sizzling Chickpea Pockets deliver a burst of Mediterranean flavors wrapped up in warm, fluffy pita bread. Enjoy well-seasoned, oven-roasted chickpeas combined with crisp vegetables and cool, savory tzatziki sauce.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a mixing bowl, combine the drained chickpeas, olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Ensure the chickpeas are evenly coated.
3
Spread the seasoned chickpeas onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.
4
Bake the chickpeas for 20 minutes, or until they become golden and crispy.
5
While the chickpeas are baking, warm up the pita flatbreads in the oven for 3 minutes, wrapped in aluminum foil.
6
To assemble the gyros, first lay out the warmed pita flatbreads. Then, spread a generous layer of store-bought tzatziki sauce on each.
7
Divide the roasted chickpeas equally among the flatbreads, and top with red onion slices, green leaf lettuce, and tomato slices.
8
Fold each pita flatbread in half, wrapping them around the filling, and serve immediately.
