Rockin' Moroccan Pitas

I found this healthy recipe on a can of Garbanzo Beans...and it's good. To enhance the yogurt I add some olive oil, pressed garlic and very finely chopped cucumber...really tasty.

1 Tbl ground cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1 lb chicken breast, cut into 1" cubes
4 Tbl olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 cans (16oz) Garbanzo Beans, rinsed and drained
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/4 cup chopped parsley
6 Whole Wheat pitas
Plain yogurt

Combine cumin and chili powder in a plastic bag. Add chicken and shake to coat. Heat 1 Tbl oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook 5 minutes or unti chicken is no longer pink; stirring frequently. Take off heat, set aside to cool. Combine remaining ingredients except pitas and yogurt. Mix well. Stir in chicken. Cut top off pitas to open. Divide chicken mixture among the pitas; top with yogurt if desired. Add salt and pepper to taste.
