Method

Mix the chicken pieces with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, sumac, cumin, red pepper flakes, yogurt, olive oil and lemon juice.
Coat the chicken well in the marinade and let it rest for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate for a few hours.
For the salad, mix the diced red onion, diced tomato and chopped parsley.
Season the salad with salt, black pepper and sumac, then toss with the lemon juice and olive oil.
For the creamy garlic sauce, blend the mayonnaise, sour cream, fresh garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder and honey in a blender until smooth.
Heat a little oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Cook the chicken in batches without overcrowding the pan until golden brown, crispy around the edges and cooked through.
Return all the chicken to the pan, top with the shredded mozzarella, cover and cook for 1–2 minutes until the cheese melts.
Toss gently and sprinkle with the parsley.
Warm the pita wraps, spread each with the garlic sauce, then add the cheesy chicken and the salad.
Fold each wrap tightly and place it seam-side down in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat.
Toast both sides until golden and crispy and the cheese is melty.
Cut each wrap in half and serve with extra garlic sauce.
