Ingredients
Garlic Mayonnaise:
Method
In large bowl, combine lemon juice, oil, garlic, allspice, salt and pepper. Cut chicken into 1-1/2-inch (4 cm) cubes; add to bowl and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate for up to 4 hours.)
Garlic Mayonnaise: Meanwhile, in bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, parsley and hot pepper sauce. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
Thread chicken onto metal or soaked wooden skewers. Place on greased grill over medium-high heat; brush with any remaining marinade. Close lid and grill, turning once, until no longer pink inside, about 12 minutes.
Toast pitas on grill, turning once, until light golden, about 3 minutes. Spread garlic mayonnaise over half of each pita. Push chicken off skewers onto pitas. Top with lettuce and tomato; fold pita over. Wrap end in waxed paper to secure.
