1/2 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons tahini paste

2 tablespoons lemon juice

2 garlic cloves minced

Pinch of salt and pepper

To Assemble

6 to 8 tortillas, thin pitas, or saj bread such as Mission Tortillas, Joseph’s Pita Bread, or Angelic Bakehouse Wraps

Pickled turnips or pickles thinly sliced

Thinly sliced onion

Thinly sliced tomato optional

Chopped parsley

Tillamook Farmstyle Fine Cut Mexican Blend Shredded Cheese optional for cheesy wraps

Instructions

Slice chicken into thin strips. Add yogurt, lemon or lime juice, olive oil, garlic, and all spices. Mix until fully coated and marinate if desired.

Heat a heavy skillet on high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through.

Add yogurt, mayonnaise, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper to a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.

Warm tortillas or pitas. Add chicken to the center, then top with pickles or turnips, sliced onion, tomato, and parsley. Drizzle with sauce.

Roll tightly. Brush lightly with oil and toast on a skillet for a crisp wrap if desired.

Notes

Use Mission Tortillas, Joseph’s Pita Bread, or Angelic Bakehouse Wraps for soft bread options.

For a cheesy wrap, add Tillamook Farmstyle Fine Cut Mexican Blend Shredded Cheese inside before rolling.

For low carb, use low carbohydrate tortillas or large lettuce leaves.

If chicken releases too much liquid during cooking, increase heat to help it brown.

Store chicken, sauce, vegetables, and bread separately to keep everything fresh.
