A flavorful Mediterranean classic featuring tender, thinly sliced chicken breast marinated in aromatic shawarma spices, wrapped in warm Arabic flatbread with crisp fresh veggies and a rich, creamy garlic-yogurt sauce.

Ingredients for Chicken Shawarma Wrap

• 250g chicken breast, thinly sliced
• 2 large flour tortillas or Arabic flatbreads
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt & 2 cloves garlic
• 1 small cucumber & 1 tomato, sliced
• 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 tbsp shawarma spice blend (cumin, paprika, cardamom)

Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions

1. In a bowl, mix the thinly sliced chicken breast with olive oil, salt, pepper, and the shawarma spice blend. Let it marinate for 15 minutes.
2. Prepare the garlic sauce by whisking together the Greek yogurt, finely minced garlic cloves, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
3. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and sear for 6-8 minutes until cooked through and slightly charred on the edges.
4. Warm the Arabic flatbreads or tortillas slightly in a dry pan.
5. Assemble the wrap by spreading a generous layer of the garlic sauce on the bread, then adding the grilled chicken shawarma, sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, and red onions.
6. Roll the flatbread tightly into a wrap, slice it in half if desired, and serve immediately alongside extra garlic sauce.
