Ingredients

Armenian Lavash - 4 pieces
Skin-On Chicken Breasts - 1 piece
Sweet Red Onion - 1 piece
White Cabbage - 1 piece
Cucumbers - 2 pieces

Parsley - 1 bunch
Sour Cream - 8.8 oz
Garlic - to taste
Champagne Vinegar - to taste
Salt - to taste
Sugar - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

First, prepare the sauce so that it sits for a while and all the flavors blend well. For this, add chopped parsley, crushed garlic, salt to the sour cream, and mix everything well.

Step 2

For the meat component, I used boiled chicken breast, cooked in advance. Cut the breast into small pieces and quickly fry in hot vegetable oil, stirring constantly — it will retain its juiciness.

Step 3

Then marinate the finely chopped sweet red onion in salt, sugar, and wine vinegar.

Step 4

Chop all the vegetables.

Step 5

Cut the lavash into strips of the desired length and spread sauce on half, then layer the vegetable and meat fillings on top.

Step 6

Carefully and tightly roll the lavash with the filling, starting from the right side, into a tube and quickly fry on a very hot grill pan (or a regular one) on both sides.
