Spanakopita Chicken Burgers on Charred Pita Rounds

I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m part Greek…and proud of it. While I’m only a quarter, as a kid we focused mostly on our Greek culture (generally the food) since the other three-quarters of my heritage is quite the hodgepodge of nationalities. So from an early age I was stuffing my face with dolmades, patsitsio, moussaka, Greek salads and spanakopita – which was hands down my favorite.
