Drain the cooking liquid from the chickpeas. Place them in a bowl, add the spice mix with a pinch of salt, and mix well.
Spread the chickpeas on a baking tray and drizzle with oil. Bake at 220°C for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, blend 180g of feta with the cream cheese, a tablespoon of water, and a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil.
Cut the remaining feta into small cubes.
Cut the cherry tomatoes into wedges and season with oil and salt.
When the chickpeas are ready, remove them from the oven and prepare the pita.
Lightly spray the pita with water and heat as desired: in the microwave for 20-30 seconds, in the toaster for 1 minute at maximum power, in a pan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side, or in the oven or air fryer at 180°C for 3 minutes.
Once the pita is heated, carefully cut it open.
Fill with some feta cream, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, crispy chickpeas, feta cubes, cucumber slices, and more cream.
Serve everything hot.
