A practical oven recipe that rescues plain cooked chicken breast from being boring. A spiced tomato sauce and melting kashar turn the lavash into golden, savory roll-ups. Since the chicken is cooked ahead, it comes together fast for dinner or a crowd.
Method
Shred the cooked chicken breast in a food processor.
Season the tomato paste with salt and your choice of spices, loosening it with a little water until spreadable.
Spread a thin layer of the sauce over a sturdy lavash.
Scatter the chicken over the sauce and sprinkle on most of the kashar.
Roll the lavash up tightly and cut into even slices; repeat with the second lavash.
Arrange the slices in a baking dish and top with the remaining cheese.
Bake at 230–250 °C for 10–15 minutes, until golden on top.

Tips
- Choose a sturdy lavash so it doesn't tear while you roll it.
- Salt the sauce gradually; if it ends up too salty, thin it with a little water.
FAQ
Is it suitable for gluten-free or lactose-free diets?
No. The lavash contains gluten and the kashar contains lactose, so it isn't suitable for celiac disease, gluten sensitivity or lactose intolerance.
What oven temperature should I use?
A very hot oven: 230–250 °C for 10–15 minutes, until browned on top.
