Absolutely delicious and simple! The mixture seemed a bit dry for our liking, so I included a tablespoon of olive oil. I also threw in halved cherry tomatoes, just like in the photo. This dish is definitely going into my regular lunch lineup. Appreciate the recipe!

Review: July 18, 2021 The recipe did not mention tomatoes, but they were visible in the photo, so I decided to include them. I highly recommend adding tomatoes as they provide a delightful flavor and add a splash of color, enhancing the visual appeal. The savory artichokes complement the grilled chicken leftovers exceptionally well, and the sharpness of the feta cheese elevates this sandwich to a truly delicious level. We enjoyed this dish for lunch on Sunday, with each person enjoying half a pita in preparation for a big dinner. I am always in search of delicious sandwich recipes, and this one will definitely make a return appearance soon, possibly for a summer meal featuring soup and sandwiches.
