Ingredients

• 500 grams Chicken breast
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 100 grams Greek yogurt
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 8 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves
• 1 Red onion
• 0.5 Cucumber
• 1 Tomato

Directions

Step 1

Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and set aside.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, coriander powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 3

Add the chicken strips to the marinade and mix well to ensure all pieces are evenly coated. Allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to overnight for best results.

Step 4

Preheat a grill pan or regular pan over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Cook the marinated chicken strips in batches (if necessary) on the hot pan for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and has a nice char.

Step 6

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the vegetables: thinly slice the red onion, slice the cucumber, and dice the tomato.

Step 7

Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for at least 5 minutes.

Step 8

Assemble the low-carb chicken doner by placing the cooked chicken strips on a romaine lettuce leaf or low-carb flatbread. Top with the sliced onion, cucumber, and diced tomato.

Step 9

Optionally, serve with a side of garlic yogurt sauce or tzatziki for additional flavor.

Step 10

Enjoy your low-carb chicken doner wrap!
