Lavash with chicken and cheese

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make pita bread with chicken and cheese in a frying pan? Very simple! Prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Instead of Armenian lavash, you can also use wheat roll. Read about how to choose the right pita bread at the end of the recipe. It is better to take out the pita bread at the very end before forming the shawarma so that it does not dry out. You can make your own mayonnaise. You will find recipes for homemade mayonnaise after the last step.

2. STEP 2

   

   In a bowl, mix sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic cloves passed through a press, salt and pepper. Leave the sauce to steep.

3. STEP 3

   

   Now prepare the rest of the ingredients. You can use any chicken parts you like. I have breast fillet. You can choose the type of cheese to suit your taste. For example, replace regular cheese with mozzarella, suluguni or feta cheese.

4. STEP 4

   

   Wash the chicken fillet, cut lengthwise into 3 parts. Place the fillet in a bowl, pour in soy sauce and vegetable oil, add spices and stir. Leave to marinate for 20-30 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place the slices of meat along with the marinade in a frying pan heated over medium heat and fry on both sides until cooked and golden brown. Read the article at the end of this recipe to find out how to choose a suitable frying pan.

6. STEP 6

   

   Cut the finished chicken into small pieces.

7. STEP 7

   

   While the chicken is frying, wash the tomato and cut into thin slices.

8. STEP 8

   

   Cut the cucumber into strips.

9. STEP 9

   

   Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Any cheese is suitable for this dish - hard, semi-hard. The main thing is that it is tasty, of high quality, without milk fat substitutes and melts well. I have Gouda cheese. For information on different types of cheeses, see the article at the end of this recipe under the steps.

10. STEP 10

    

    If necessary, trim the lavash sheets with a knife or scissors so that they become the same shape and size. If the pita bread is in the form of one large sheet, cut it into two identical rectangles or squares. Spread some of the pita bread with garlic sauce. Place shredded fried chicken on top of the sauce.

11. STEP 11

    

    Then distribute the tomatoes and cucumber.

12. STEP 12

    

    Sprinkle everything with grated cheese.

13. STEP 13

    

    Folding the edges, roll the pita bread into a tight roll. Make the second roll in the same way.

14. STEP 14

    

    If you wish, you can fry the pita roll with cheese and cucumber in a dry frying pan or on the grill on both sides. Then serve. Bon appetit!

For a snack I made lavash with chicken and cheese! And simple, and fast, and tasty! First, I marinated the chicken fillet in soy sauce with spices. While the meat was marinating, I cut the cucumber into strips, cut the tomatoes into small slices, and grated the cheese (I used Russian) on a fine grater. I fried the chicken fillet in a frying pan on both sides and cut it into strips. I greased the lavash sheets with a sauce of mayonnaise, sour cream, and garlic. I put meat, cucumber, tomato, cheese on the pita bread and rolled it up. I did the same with other sheets of pita bread. Lightly fry the rolls on both sides in a dry frying pan. A great recipe that is suitable for all occasions! Thanks to Maria for the idea!

I made pita breads with similar fillings - the family liked them. But the nuances of this recipe interested me. I’ll definitely try to cook it this way!

It turned out very tasty! There was just too much filling - it would have been perfect for three rolls.
