    Method

    1. 1

      Blend the orange, lemon, onion, garlic, yogurt, spices, salt and olive oil into a smooth marinade. Coat the chicken and marinate overnight.

    2. 2

      Toum: blend the garlic and salt to a paste, then with the motor running drizzle in the oil very slowly, alternating with the lemon juice and ice water, until white and fluffy.

    3. 3

      Heat the oven to 230°C (450°F). Spread the chicken on a lined tray and roast 20-25 minutes.

    4. 4

      Slice thinly and broil or pan-fry the slices for a few minutes to char the edges.

    5. 5

      Spread flatbreads with toum, add chicken, pickles and a few fries, roll tightly and toast the wrap in a dry pan.
