  2. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  3. Wash and slice bell peppers into thin strips and arrange evenly on a sheet pan, leaving space in the center for the chicken.

  5. Remove from the oven and let sit. Warm pita bread, then fill with chicken, peppers, tzatziki, and any additional toppings.
