Ingredients
    1 lb ground chicken
    1/3 cup fine dry breadcrumb
    1 egg

    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    2 pita bread
    mayonnaise (just for spreading inside of pitas)
    4 slices red onions
    4 slices tomatoes
    4 leaves green leaf lettuce (romaine with veiny middle cut out)
Preparation
    In medium bowl,gently mix together chicken,bread crumbs,egg,milk,lemon juice,mint,oregano,salt and pepper until well combined(mixing too vigorously will result in tough burgers).Shape into 4 patties each about 3/4 inch thick.
    In a large nonstick skillet heat oil over medium-high heat.Cook patties about 8 minutes turning once,until golden brown and no longer pink inside.
    Meanwhile,cut pitas in half crosswise to make 4 pockets.Warm pitas in 300 degree oven wrapped in aluminum foil for 5 minutes or in the microwave for 1 minute.
    Spread inside of pita with mayo then place cooked patty inside with a slice of red onion ,tomato,and some lettuce.enjoy.
