Place the onion a baking sheet and place a round oven safe cookie cutter or mould around the onion. Stick a skewer into the centre of the onion. Skewer the chicken breasts on the onion, one on top of the other. Top with half a lemon. Cook in the oven for 45 minutes to an hour or until the meat is tender. Make the basting sauce by combining the siracha, butter and honey in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat. remove the chicken form the oven and brush the sauce all over the chicken, leaving a bit of sauce to serve. Place the chicken back in the oven for 5 minutes. Combine the yogurt, parsley, salt and pepper. Cut an opening in the pita bread, spread a spoon of the yogurt dip, some chicken off the skewer and place in the bread. Drizzle over a bit of the leftover hot sauce and enjoy!
Chefs Tip: You could spice and marinate the chicken overnight to ensure maximum flavour!
