Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine 400 g thinly sliced chicken breast with 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken slices and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and cooked through.
  3. Step 3: In a small bowl, mix 100 g plain yogurt with 1 tbsp lemon juice and 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro until smooth and tangy.
  4. Step 4: Warm 4 flatbreads briefly in a dry pan or microwave. Lay each flatbread flat and spread with the yogurt sauce, then layer with 1 cup shredded lettuce, 1/2 cup sliced red onion, and the cooked spiced chicken.
  5. Step 5: Roll up each flatbread tightly to enclose the fillings and serve immediately, enjoying the contrast of warm chicken and fresh crisp vegetables.

Cool to room temperature within 2 hours, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat covered in a 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes, or microwave at 70% power in 60-second bursts to keep thinly sliced chicken breast from drying out.

Can I substitute ingredients in Streetwear-Inspired Spiced Chicken Wraps?

Yes — most ingredients in this recipe have flexible swaps. For oil, use any neutral high-smoke-point oil (avocado, grapeseed, refined coconut). For aromatics, dried herbs at ⅓ the volume of fresh work in a pinch. The full ingredient list is shoppable on Instacart so you can see substitutes in real time.

How do I scale Streetwear-Inspired Spiced Chicken Wraps for a different number of people?

The recipe is written for 4 servings. Multiply each ingredient by (your serving target / 4). Cook time stays roughly the same up to 2x; for 3-4x batches, switch from a skillet to a sheet pan or stockpot so the food isn't crowded — overcrowding steams instead of browns.
