01

Slice the chicken breast into medium-sized strips and transfer them to a bowl.

02

Season the chicken with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, chili flakes, and half of the lemon juice. Mix well by hand.

03

Heat a little oil in a pan and fry the chicken pieces until they have a golden, appetizing crust and are cooked through.

04

To make the sauce, combine Greek yogurt, sriracha, minced garlic, the remaining lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and finely chopped parsley in a bowl. Mix until smooth.

05

Roughly chop the iceberg lettuce, and slice the red onion and tomato.

06

Lay out a lavash flatbread. Place the chopped lettuce, followed by the cooked chicken, onion, and tomato. Drizzle the sauce generously over the filling, then tightly roll it up like a burrito.

07

Toast the wrapped shawarma in a dry pan on both sides until the outside is crispy and golden brown.
