Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 1/2 cups plain non-fat or low-fat yogurt, divided
  • 2 large cloves minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 large handfuls chopped hearts of Romaine lettuce
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh mint
  • 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup thinly sliced English or Persian cucumbers
  • ½ thinly sliced red onion
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 6 multi-grain Flatout flatbreads

Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken breast into 1 ½-inch pieces.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup of the yogurt, garlic, coriander, cumin, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken pieces, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate for several hours, or ideally overnight.

  3. When ready to cook, pull the chicken from the refrigerator. If using wooden skewers, immerse them in water for at least 20 minutes before cooking. Thread the chicken onto the 6 skewers and use your hands to wipe off as much of the yogurt as you can manage without getting obsessive about it.

  4. Heat the grill over a medium-high flame. When it is ready, grill the chicken until browned on all sides and the inside is cooked (just barely no longer pink).

  5. While the chicken cooks, put the lettuce, mint, tomatoes, cucumber, and onion in a large bowl. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice of the lemon along with the olive oil over the salad. Season with a big pinch of salt.

  6. Just before serving, quickly warm the Flatout flatbreads on the grill. Serve the chicken, warm flatbread, salad, and remaining ½ cup of yogurt at the table for everyone to make their own wraps. 

  7. To assemble, pull the chicken from the skewer and lay on a flatbread. Add a generous spoonful of both salad and yogurt. Roll up and eat.
