Method

  1. Poach the chicken2 in salted water for 15–20 minutes until fully cooked (no pink inside), then cool and slice into 1 cm thick matchsticks.

  2. Drain the chickpeas2, then blend with lemon7 juice, olive oil, and a pinch of salt until smooth, adding water as needed to reach a thick paste.

  3. Shred the carrot4 and cucumber5 into 6 cm long matchsticks.

  4. Warm the lavash on a dry skillet for 20–30 seconds until pliable, then spread a 2–3 mm layer of hummus over it.

  5. Lay a line of lettuce down the center, followed by chicken2, carrot4, and cucumber5.

  6. Roll the lavash tightly into a log, slice into 2–3 cm thick pieces, and serve.

Tips

Why it works
Boil chicken for exactly 15 minutes to avoid dryness; overcooking makes it tough and chewy. Use a timer.
Substitutions
Replace cucumber with bell pepper strips (60g) for crunch; swap hummus for mashed chickpeas (60g) with lemon juice.
Common mistakes
If lavash cracks while rolling, it’s too dry. Warm it longer next time. Notice by seeing splits or uneven layers.
Storing and reheating
Eat fresh or store for 2 days in the fridge; reheat in a dry pan for 2 minutes per side. Freezing ruins lavash crispness.
Serve with
Pair with a side of plain yogurt (50g) for extra protein; eat as a quick office lunch with a black coffee.
