Let's Get Started
- In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to make the marinade.
- Add the chicken breasts to the marinade and coat them evenly. Let them marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove from heat and let them rest for a few minutes.
- Slice the cooked chicken into thin strips.
- Warm the pita bread in a toaster or on a grill for a few seconds on each side.
- Spread a generous amount of garlic sauce on each pita bread.
- Layer the sliced chicken, tomato, cucumber, red onion, and fresh parsley on top of the garlic sauce.
- Fold the sides of the pita bread over the filling and roll it tightly to form a wrap.
- Serve the Lebanese chicken shawarma wraps immediately and enjoy!
