Portions:4

Serving size: 1 pita sandwich

Ingredients

  • 7 teaspoons Kikkoman® Less Sodium Teriyaki Sauce (divided use)
  • 8 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast (2 breast halves) (trim visible fat)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided use)
  • 1 cup onion, diced
  • 1/3 cup reduced fat mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup scallions, chopped
  • 2 white pita bread, large size, cut in half
  • 1/2 cup lettuce (iceberg or romaine), chopped

Preparation

  1. Place chicken into a zip-top bag. Add 5 teaspoons teriyaki sauce and marinate in refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours.
  2. In medium frying pan heat 1 tablespoon oil and cook chicken thoroughly until no pink remains.
  3. Meanwhile, in a small frying pan, sauté onion in 1 tablespoon olive oil. 
  4. While chicken and onion are cooking, combine mayonnaise, scallions and 2 teaspoons Kikkoman® Less Sodium Teriyaki Sauce. Put mixture aside.

  6. Take pita halves and coat inside with mayonnaise mixture. Fill pita with several chicken pieces; top with sautéed onion, lettuce and tomatoes.

Helpful Hints

  • One average-size raw, boneless, skinless chicken breast weighs approximately 4 ounces.
  • Use one pita per serving, if smaller pitas are substituted for the larger ones.
  • Even though tomato is a high-potassium vegetable, the 2 tablespoons per serving is small enough that potassium for the recipe is still acceptable for a low-potassium diet.
  • If you need extra calories, use regular mayonnaise instead of reduced fat. Besides providing more calories, sodium content is lower.
