Method 

• In a saucepan heat the oil over medium high heat. Add your chicken and cook for 3 minutes, or until starting to turn white.

• Add in the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes, then add the quince paste, sriracha, paprika, onion powder and garlic powder. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated and then cook for an extra 2-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to brown slightly. Check to make sure the chicken is cooked and then remove from the heat.  

• In a blender, add the feta, oregano, yoghurt, milk, olive oil and garlic and blend until the feta is whipped and smooth. 

• In a bowl toss together the capsicum, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion and lemon juice.

• To serve, spread some of the whipped feta into the center of the pita, load the chicken on top, and then finish with the salad. Enjoy!
