Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Marinate the deboned chicken with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and sumac. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Onions

    Slice the onion thinly and toss it with sumac. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

  3. 3

    Toast the Pine Nuts

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pine nuts until golden brown, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Remove from heat and set aside.

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Wraps

    Place a piece of Markouk bread on a flat surface. Lay grilled chicken on the bread, add sumac onions, and sprinkle toasted pine nuts on top.

  6. 6

    Wrap and Serve

    Wrap the bread tightly around the filling. Cut in half and serve warm.
