Have you ever found yourself a little transfixed by that late day/early evening glowing skyline as it stretches across the horizon and envelopes everything below it, and to the sides of it, in a soft splash of gold?
I certainly have, quite frequently; and it’s probably one of my favorite things in the world.
It can be spectacular!
And it can whisk me away into moody daydreams of moving pictures in my mind, punctuated by a new favorite song that plays on continuous loop as a soundtrack, adding to the sweet melancholia that swells my heart until it feels like it might just burst, but in a good way.
Those mesmerizing early evening skies that we have here in Los Angeles are entities themselves—beings—like brooding characters out of a Hollywood film.
They’re a touch smoky-purple and blue from that famous smog of ours (crazy enough, it makes for a spectacularly colored sunset), and they never hang around for anything more than about “15 minutes” or so, until they slink away.
And so I try to grab a hold of them when I can, these evening skies that I call “mine”, these muses that sparkle and shimmer.
Sometimes I imagine the golden-hued twilight sky having a flavor to it, a touch of spice, that permeates just a little into everything that its yellow light falls upon.
I imagine that it has a succulence, a juiciness, and a vibrance—a brightness—that is accented by tiny bursts of coolness.
And it is delectable for the soul, and a feast for the eyes; and I have the feeling it would taste wonderful on the tongue.
There’s something about it that feeds and satiates, yet at the same time, leaves me longing for more.
And so I wait for it to come again, tomorrow.
The golden-hued evening sky that envelopes is like a warm wrap that holds me and everything else below it tightly together, all rolled up nice and snuggly, and keeps all that is good and true gently protected.
It is a gift to the soul that yearns for things that are better and more divinely delicious, holding those very things suspended and in wait, until those who can resist no longer come and take a bite of it.
Taste what’s good and pass it on.

Grilled Lemon Chicken Flatbread Wraps with Spicy Garlic Sauce
by Ingrid Beer
Print RecipeYield: 4 wraps
Ingredients:
• 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 2 large breasts), cubed into bite-size pieces
• Olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, pressed through garlic press
• Zest of 1 lemon (about 1 tablespoon)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• Pinch or two black pepper
• ½ teaspoon dried oregano
• ½ teaspoon ground cumin
• ¼ teaspoon coriander
• ¼ teaspoon paprika
• 4 middle eastern-style flatbreads (you can use pita bread, as well)
• Arugula greens
• Sliced tomatoes
• Spicy Garlic Sauce (recipe below)
Preparation:
-Place the cubed chicken into a medium-size bowl, and drizzle in about 2 tablespoons of olive oil; add in the garlic, plus the remainder of the ingredients up to and including the paprika, and using your hands, toss all of the seasonings/spices very well to coat the chicken.
-Using 4 bamboo skewers, skewer the chicken so that there is equal portions of meat on each skewer, and allow the chicken to marinate for about 20 minutes, or even overnight, if making ahead.
-When ready to grill, place a grill pan over medium-high heat (you can certainly use your outdoor grill, as well), and drizzle in a little oil; once the oil gets hot, place the chicken skewers into the pan, and cook them for about 6-8 minutes, turning them occasionally so that they get a bit charred on all sides, or until cooked through; allow them to rest, lightly covered with foil, for about 5-10 minutes; then, remove the chicken cubes from the skewers and set aside.
-To assemble, add a little drizzle of the Spicy Garlic Sauce onto the flatbread, followed by the greens; then, add a couple of slices of tomato, and about one skewer-worth of the lemon chicken; drizzle over a generous amount of the Spicy Garlic Sauce, and fold the sides towards the middle to form a “wrap” (you can even use some parchment paper or foil to hold it all together, if you’d like).
Spicy Garlic Sauce Ingredients:
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• ½ cup sour cream or full-fat, plain Greek yogurt
• 3 cloves garlic, pressed through garlic press
• 1 tablespoon tahini
• 2-3 teaspoons sriracha (I used a lot more since I like mine spicy, so use your own judgement!)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• Pinch black pepper
• Pinch cayenne pepper (again, you can use more, if you like it spicier)
• ½ teaspoon lemon juice
Preparation:
-Add all ingredients to a medium-size bowl, and whisk together until completely smooth and creamy; use immediately, or keep in the fridge, covered. (I like to put mine in a plastic squeeze bottle, and keep any leftovers in the fridge to use for other sandwiches, or as a tasty condiment.)

April 3, 2015 at 10:06 amIngrid- you have done it again! These wraps are incredible! The chicken is sooo yummy- and moist!- even though half of them charred a bit much on the bbq! The Spicy Garlic Sauce is a new favorite for our house- I doubled the recipe to be sure we had enough to dip our fries in to also, and so glad I did! As this will be a great change-up to mayo and mustard for sandwiches! I followed your recipes exactly, and they are perfectly magnificent! Thank you for another wonderful addition to my recipe file and our family dinners! Have a lovely Easter weekend!! 🙂 Tip for readers: Can’t find Tahini in your grocery store? I found it in mine by accident as it is in the Kosher section!! Maybe your store would have it in the same place?!
The Cozy Apron
April 6, 2015 at 3:53 pmHi Kathi! I’m thrilled that you and your family enjoyed these! Isn’t that sauce delicious? And thanks for the tip on the tahini; it looks like different stores keep it in different places. Thank you for your comments!

February 4, 2017 at 3:45 pmLynn, you should be pretty good for about a week. 🙂
Riley
February 28, 2017 at 8:56 pmIs there a tahini substitute? I want to make these tomorrow but don’t think I will have time to grab it. If it’s a game changer I’ll wait until I can get some.

February 28, 2017 at 10:25 pmHi Riley, it’s not a game changer. Just leave it out, and enjoy the recipe! 🙂

May 11, 2017 at 5:17 amI take a hand full of sesame seeds, roast them and blitz them to make a paste. It does a bit of the flavour you are looking for.
michele m.
June 30, 2015 at 7:00 pmI made these tonight and they were so yummy! The marinade gave such great flavor to the chicken and that sauce…….omg so tasty! I like things spicy too, so i added more sriracha and cayenne as well. I served it with a simple salad and spelt risotto from trader joe’s for an easy side dish. This will make our rotation for sure! Thanks!
The Cozy Apron
July 1, 2015 at 3:05 pmHi Michele! So excited that you enjoyed these, and that they’ll be a part of your dinner rotation! Great choice of side by the way—isn’t Trader Joe’s the best? 🙂 Thanks for your comments!
Shakhar
May 22, 2016 at 9:13 amI just now marinated my chicken and mixed up some of the sauce. Can’t wait to try these tonight for dinner. I also got some real Middle Eastern flat bread to try with it from a store near by. 🙂 Ty for the wonderful recipe! It looks delicious and healthy.

July 20, 2015 at 4:13 pmThe Grilled Lemon Chicken Flat bread is making my mouth water, and I’m a huge fan of Mediterranean food. Is it possible that I can use lettuce for the sandwiches, because my sister doesn’t like arugula. Thank you, Ingrid. 🙂

September 22, 2015 at 10:24 pmCan you tell me where to find Tahini. I have looked at 2 supermarkets and Walmart…I live in a major city in the U.S. but can’t seem to find it anywhere.

October 13, 2015 at 9:40 amI found Tahini at Whole Foods.

January 24, 2017 at 8:12 amAsian grocery stores often carry it.

February 27, 2016 at 9:27 amMade this for lunch today. Awesome. Thank you so much. We cut back on the Sirachi, I’m not sure my kids would have eaten the full version. The chicken was delicious on its own and the sandwich combination was great. Will definitely make again.

May 5, 2016 at 12:04 pmHi. I made these for dinner tonight. I have a ton of the sauce leftover. How long will it keep in fridge?
Thanks for the recipe.
The Cozy Apron
May 5, 2016 at 4:47 pmHi Rebecca, it’ll keep for a while in the fridge—I’d say you’d be fine for about a week (maybe even a little more) as long as it’s kept in a covered, air-tight container and cold. You can enjoy it as a spread, or as a dressing, as well! Glad you enjoyed these.
Timmi
May 13, 2016 at 12:40 pmThese wraps are TO DIE for! Omg my husband and I AND my 15 yo son loved every bite! My son is the pickiest! I thought for sure he would pass on the sauce. But he loved it! We are having them again tonight! Two days in a row. Love love love!

Ana
May 18, 2016 at 3:20 amI cannot find Tahini anywhere. Living on a military base in Japan you can’t find much of what you want when you need it. Can I do without the tahini or is there anything I can replace it with?
Also can I use minced garlic in the jar for the sauce?
The Cozy Apron
May 19, 2016 at 10:27 amHi Ana, first, of all, thank you for either your service, or your loved one’s service! Our son is a Marine, and it makes me feel kindred to hear that you are on a base. 🙂 Don’t worry about including the tahini—can totally be left out. And use the minced garlic if that’s what you have available—fresh is best tasting, but if you’re not able to get it, use what you have. Hope you enjoy!

Andrea
June 14, 2016 at 4:17 amGREAT recipe!! For anyone who is wondering, you can leave out the mayonnaise from the sauce and it’s still super delicious! (just replace with a little more yogurt/sour cream). I also didn’t use the tahini as I didn’t have any. Personally, I found that it made about double the sauce you need. There were so many great flavors in here you could really just eat the marinaded chicken on its own (the sauce almost overwhelmed it a little), but it was a really delicious combo.
The Cozy Apron
June 16, 2016 at 1:15 amAndrea, thanks so much for your comments! Great that you made the recipe to your taste!

June 20, 2016 at 6:54 pmAWE SNAP! This is a recipe for the ages. Made it for Father’s Day and it was a huge hit. Our daughter now wants it for her B-Day dinner. This is even good the following day as leftovers. Well done Cozy Apron!

Cristina
August 6, 2016 at 11:10 pmI stumbled on this recipe on Pinterest and I am so happy I did! My family LOVED it, and the deliciousness is in the simplicity of the ingredients. I dressed the leftover arugula I had with some olive oil, salt/pepper, tomatoes and lemon juice and served as a side salad. I loved how un-fussy this was, and how flavorful. (Oh, and I will use that garlic sauce with EVERYTHING now!)
The Cozy Apron
August 8, 2016 at 9:44 pmCristina, isn’t Pinterest the best, lol?! So glad you all loved this, and I’m grateful you came back to share your experience with the recipe. Great way to make use of the remaining arugula, by the way!

September 5, 2016 at 11:59 pmI have made this a few times but always go back to the garlic sauce. It is a staple in my kitchen. I leave out the salt and cayenne pepper for us -just due to individual tastes. It is SO delicious!! Thank you!!

September 16, 2016 at 4:54 pmHi dear,
Buzzfeed featured your recipe recently and I just made it – and I’m in love!
I skipped the tahini in the sauce and the coriander on the chicken, as I’m not a big fan of both, but still it was amazingly tasty. I just mailed this to my mom, as I know she will love it just as much.
Thank you for this wonderful inspiration!

September 30, 2016 at 7:23 pmI have made these wraps several times now and it is a regular in our family as they are absolutely delicious.! Last time I made them I forgot to put the tahini in the sauce but was still was great! So I guess if you don’t have any or can’t find tahini near you then no worries! Thank you for such a great recipe!
The Cozy Apron
September 30, 2016 at 9:12 pmHi Pam, thank you for sharing that—I love that you’re enjoying these so much! And it’s certainly no problem if you forget the add in (or don’t have any) tahini; it just adds a mild nuttiness, but it’s perfectly delicious without, as well. 🙂
Crissy
October 4, 2016 at 12:41 amThis was amazing! I used a different marinade that had more garlic, 1 tsp paprika, no coriander or oregano, added a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg. I don’t buy tahini because I never end up using all of it so I just put some hummus on our wraps. Omg the garlic sauce is to die for, we even dipped tater tots in it! Thanks for this amazing recipe, I would make it again and again.

November 11, 2016 at 3:05 amHi Erica,
The serving size for the sauce is about 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup), approximately* 70 calories.
*But the calories will for sure vary depending on the brands/kinds used for the ingredients.
We always recommend building your own recipe analysis at a site like calorie count

March 4, 2018 at 6:48 pmOkay… can I just say how delicious this is? My husband and I are not eating carbs so I made this on a bed of patricianly cooked spinach. The flavors are outstanding. I do however think next time I won’t use as much garlic. Don’t get me wrong, I L O V E garlic but for some reason it was a little overpowering.
I also used a bell pepper when BBQ ing it. If I could rate this I would give it 5 stars!!

April 9, 2018 at 4:53 pmJust made this for dinner tonight. SO YUMMY! Even my pickiest eater liked it minus the arugula. I did add a little goat cheese just for fun. Wow that was good. I am not real big on sauces or dressing and honestly was a little nervous about putting too much on, but this one was so great I had to go back and add more. It just takes this very easy to make meal over the top. Thanks for sharing.

April 9, 2018 at 7:27 pmHey Susan, I love when the “picky eaters” enjoy my recipes as well! So glad the recipe was a success for you, and that you even ended up adding more of the sauce—it truly does take these wraps over the top with that extra hint of garlicky savoriness. Thanks so much for taking a few moments to comment on your experience!

April 13, 2018 at 5:25 pmThis sounds wonderful, which is one reason I spent so much time tracking the recipe down.
I have a love/hate relationship with Pinterest. Mostly hate these days, as so many of the links I follow go nowhere, or have no source offered. I took quite a train of pictures to find your blog, and this recipe, and I’m glad I finally did.
Thanks for sharing.

June 14, 2018 at 6:57 pmHi! This recipe sounds amazing! For the marinade is it possible to leave out the yogurt? I have a dairy allergy.

June 14, 2018 at 7:23 pmHi Nicky, you absolutely can leave out the sour cream or yogurt in the sauce; just sub in more mayo in that case. Hope you enjoy!

September 15, 2018 at 10:33 amThanks for this great recipe. I think I found it soon after you shared it. I haven’t made it in a while, but my 27 year old daughter is home this weekend and requested it.

September 15, 2018 at 10:47 amDonna, I am so very touched that this recipe has been requested by your daughter. I hope you both enjoy it thoroughly, together!
Thank you so much for sharing this with me. 😉

September 28, 2018 at 6:33 pmHI Ingrid,
They say you eat with your eyes and the beautiful pics of your wraps made me want to try your recipe. Also that it was so easy to put together. I like kabobs but chose not to do it that way, I have a cast iron skillet that I put the chicken cubes in, same result. Also on the tahini, I looked up the substitute for it and it is 3 parts peanut butter to 1 part sesame oil which is what I used. Love the sauce and will be using it for other things. One thing that I added to the wraps was Feta cheese, just seemed to need it. My husband and I love these and this will be a keeper recipe.

September 29, 2018 at 8:52 amHi Diane, thank you so much for sharing how much you enjoyed the wraps!
Glad you made these your own, using a method that works best for you, and that all turned out delicious. And the feta is an excellent addition—it’s one of my favorite cheeses, and I can totally see how the tangy/salty flavors add a little extra flair!
May you enjoy the recipe for a long time!

December 5, 2018 at 8:33 amThis was SO GOOD! My daughter said I should use this marinade for chicken every time. Thank you for the delicious recipe we’ll be sure to make again soon.

And that marinade really is very good for chicken, for many different preparations—feel free to use it and experiment! 😉
