Cut the chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Stir well to create a marinade.
Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers.
Grill the chicken skewers for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and has grill marks. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).
Remove the chicken from the skewers and set aside.
Warm the pita bread or flatbread on the grill for 1-2 minutes or in a skillet over medium heat until pliable.
To assemble the wraps, place a lettuce leaf on each piece of bread, then divide the sliced tomatoes, red onion, and cucumber among the wraps.
Top with the grilled chicken pieces and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
Roll up each wrap tightly, securing with a toothpick if necessary, and serve immediately.
