Congratulations to Laura on being a finalist. Here's how she did it and how you can do it too.

Ingredients

• White Pitta Bread
  
• Butter
  
• Lemon, Garlic & Rosemary marinated chicken - chargrilled
  
• Vine tomatoes - sliced
  
• Mediterranean stuffing
  
• Minted cabbage
  
• Yoghurt and cucumber dressing

Method

Open and butter the pitta bread then generously fill with the other ingredients

Asked what makes her creation stand out from the competition Laura said:

"A commercial twist on a Greek classic ‘souvlaki’? Pitta breads are the unsung heroes of the bread world - low fat - low GI This sandwich is even better with the marinated chicken hot off the char-grill. The subtle lemon, garlic & Rosemary chicken marinade compliments the yoghurt and cucumber dressing with a hint of garlic, the minted cabbage julienne and slices of vine ripened tomatoes add coolness and a crunchy texture the Mediterranean stuffing adds a contrasting vibrancy and a good flavour of tomato and black olive."
