• 1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
• 1 medium red onion, sliced in thin wedges
• 1 small green bell pepper, sliced in thin strips

• 6 pita bread rounds, warmed

Method

Heat a large skillet or wok over high heat; add oil, turkey strips and kosher salt. Stir-fry until cooked through, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove turkey from pan, reserving oil. Add onion, green pepper and red pepper. Stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 3-4 minutes; add relish; remove from heat. In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, sour cream and minced chipotle. Add this mixture to turkey and stir until combined. Serve on pita rounds; garnish with cilantro.

Notes: If your favorite giardiniera brand doesn't come minced you can easily mince it in a food processor
