Instructions

Step 1: Marinate the Chicken

In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, sumac, oregano, turmeric, lemon juice, tomato paste, salt, and pepper. Mix well until evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for 4–6 hours.

Cook the chicken in a skillet over medium heat with the lid on for about 4 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Let it rest before slicing.

Step 2: Prepare the Flatbreads

Mix the flour, Greek yogurt, baking powder, and salt until a soft dough forms.

Divide into four equal portions. On a parchment-lined baking tray, lightly spray the parchment and your hands with avocado oil. Flatten each portion into a round flatbread and press small indentations into the surface with your fingertips.

Lightly spray with oil, sprinkle sesame seeds if desired, and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes until lightly golden. Cover loosely with parchment after baking to keep them soft.

Step 3: Make the Garlic Yogurt Spread

Combine Greek yogurt, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix until smooth.

Step 4: Prepare the Onion Salad

Mix the sliced onion with parsley, lemon juice, sumac, and salt. Let sit for several minutes to soften and develop flavor.

Step 5: Assemble the Wraps

Spread the garlic yogurt sauce over each flatbread. Layer with fresh tomato slices, sliced chicken, and onion salad. Sprinkle with extra sumac before serving.

Meal Prep Tips

Marinate the chicken overnight for maximum flavor.

Store cooked chicken in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

Prepare the yogurt sauce and onion salad ahead of time.

Assemble wraps just before eating to keep the flatbread fresh.

Helpful Variations

Swap chicken thighs for chicken breast.

Add cucumbers, lettuce, or spinach for extra freshness.

Use whole wheat flour for added fiber.

Add crumbled feta for a classic Mediterranean twist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use chicken breast?

Yes. Chicken breast is a leaner option and works just as well.

Can these wraps be made gluten-free?

Absolutely. Use your favorite gluten-free all-purpose flour blend.

Can I freeze the flatbreads?

Yes. Freeze them in an airtight container for up to 2 months and reheat before serving.
