Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the whole wheat pita bread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the pita, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken breast into thin strips and arrange them over the cheese.
Distribute the sliced bell peppers, red onion, and mushrooms evenly over the chicken.
Drizzle the olive oil over the toppings.
Sprinkle dried oregano, salt, and black pepper over the entire pizza for added flavor.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the pita are crispy.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2 minutes.
Garnish with chopped fresh basil before slicing.
Cut into quarters and serve while hot.
