In a separate bowl, combine yogurt and sriracha.
3
Grill koftas on a medium-high heat grill, about 350°F, for 3 minutes per side or until a thermometer reads 160°F. (Oil grill grates so the meat does not stick.) Remove from grill; allow to rest under foil for 10 minutes. Grill pita bread for a few minutes to warm.
