Step-by-Step Beginner-Friendly Instructions

1. Season the chicken:
   In a bowl, combine chicken cubes, olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, pepper, oregano, cumin, coriander, and paprika. Toss until evenly coated.
2. Cook the chicken:
   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and fully cooked. Chicken should be lightly charred on the edges and juicy inside
3. Make the spicy garlic sauce:
   While the chicken cooks, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream or Greek yogurt, garlic, tahini, sriracha, salt, black pepper, cayenne, and lemon juice. Sauce should be smooth and creamy
4. Warm the flatbreads:
   Warm flatbreads in a dry skillet or microwave for 15–20 seconds until soft and pliable.
5. Assemble the wraps:
   Spread garlic sauce on each flatbread, add arugula, sliced tomatoes, and warm chicken.
6. Wrap and serve:
   Roll tightly, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately

Pro Tips

• Meal prep: Store cooked chicken and sauce separately for up to 4 days in the fridge.
• Extra veggies: Add cucumbers, red onions, or shredded carrots for more crunch.
• Make it lighter: Use all Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise in the sauce.
• Serving idea: Serve with a simple cucumber salad or roasted veggies on the side.
