Instructions

Season the chickpeas and saute them over medium-high heat until well browned, about 9 minutes.

Add the tomatoes and eggplant, cooking until softened, about 4 minutes.

Stir in the olive oil, tzatziki, feta cheese and lemon juice for 3 minutes.

Warm the pita bread separately.

Let the chickpeas simmer for about 16 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the pita bread, garnished with fresh herbs.
