Chinese Chicken Salad Pita Sandwiches

Chinese Chicken Salad Pita Sandwiches
I came home from classes for lunch today and threw together this experimental pita sandwich with things I had on hand, including some leftover grilled chicken from last night's supper. Next time I make grilled chicken, I'm planning leftovers just to make this tasty sandwich. It was the best lunch I've had this week.
4 boneless skinless fully cooked grilled chicken breasts, cooled and diced
4 tablespoon mayonnaise
½ teaspoon chinese five spice powder
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon chinese chili paste
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoon lemon or lime juice
1 diced tomato
pinch salt
¼ teaspoon balck pepper
Toss all ingredients together well and use to fill whole wheat pita pockets. You can add lettuce or spinach to the pita as well if desired.
