Instructions
Prep
Cut 440g chicken thighs into 2.5cm pieces. Toss with 2 tbsp zaatar, 1 tsp sumac, 0.5 tsp Aleppo pepper, grated garlic (4 cloves), 20ml olive oil, 10ml lemon juice, and 2 tsp salt; rest 5 minutes. Whisk yogurt with grated garlic (remaining 4 cloves), lemon juice, and salt to taste. Toss red onion with 1 tsp sumac, lemon juice, and salt. Thinly slice tomato and cucumber. Pick parsley and mint leaves.
Sear
Heat a wide skillet over medium-high for 1 minute. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, sear chicken in a single layer 5–6 minutes per batch, turning once, until deeply caramelised and cooked through.
Toast
Warm markook bread in a dry pan over medium for 20 seconds per side until pliable and warm.
Wrap
Lay bread flat. Spread garlic-yogurt sauce in a 6cm strip across lower third leaving 4cm border; dust with 0.5 tsp sumac. Layer chicken, tomato, cucumber, sumac onion, parsley, and mint. Fold bottom edge up over filling, fold side edges in, and roll tightly into a sealed wrap.
Plate
Slice wraps on the diagonal and serve immediately.
