Lavash roll with chicken and Korean carrots
Fantastic appetizer roll, spicy, savory. It is impossible to stop until the last piece is finished.
We take:
- Armenian lavash – 3 sheets.
- Chicken fillet, boiled – 200 gr.
- Korean carrots - to taste (about 100-150 g).
- Processed cheese - a couple.
- Mayonnaise, dill sprigs, pepper, salt.
Step by step recipe:
Boil any parts of the chicken in advance, cool slightly, and fillet it. Chop it into small cubes.
Unfold the pita bread and straighten it. Coat generously with mayonnaise. To ensure that the roll holds its shape well, I advise you to put more oni on the pita bread and also grease it with mayonnaise sauce. Then the filling is guaranteed not to fall out.
Grate one processed cheese. To ensure that the cheesecakes are easily grated and do not stick to the grater, I recommend freezing them first, placing them in the freezer for about a quarter of an hour. Distribute the cheese crumbs over the entire surface of the sheet. Help yourself with a knife, as if spreading the cheese mass.
Chop the dill and sprinkle cheese on top.
Cover the workpiece with the next sheet of thin pita bread. Press a little with your hands. Coat with mayonnaise again.
Lay out the chicken meat, distribute it evenly over the sheet, but leave a little space at the edges so that the meat does not fall out when eating. Salt this layer.
Rub the second cheese on top.
Drain excess marinade from Korean carrot salad. Cut long straws to make it easier to eat. Place the top layer on the roll.
Form a roll by tightly wrapping the pita bread with filling.
To allow the snack to freeze and harden, place the roll wrapped in cling film in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.

✅ Filling with chicken fillet, green salad and fresh vegetables
Ingredients:
- 1 thin pita bread;
- 100 g chicken fillet;
- 1 medium-sized tomato;
- 1 medium-sized cucumber;
- 50 g hard cheese;
- 3-4 pieces of large lettuce leaves;
- 2 tbsp. l. mayonnaise;
- 0.5 tsp dry basil.
Preparation:
For this recipe we need chicken fillet. It can be pre-boiled or fried in a frying pan, cut into small pieces.
Lay thin lavash (also called Armenian) on a flat surface (an ordinary kitchen countertop will do) and grease it with mayonnaise. Place lettuce leaves on top, torn into several pieces (exclusively for ease of laying out).
Cut the chicken fillet into small pieces and place on lettuce leaves.
We also cut the cucumber and tomato into small pieces - cubes with a side of up to 1 cm - and place them on a sheet of pita bread, along with the chicken breast.
Three hard cheeses on a medium grater (or any other grater of your choice) and sprinkle vegetables and chicken on top. You can add your favorite spices on top - for me it’s basil, so I put it in, I think it goes well with all the ingredients.
All we have to do is roll the pita bread tightly into a roll, and our dish is ready.
This lavash roll with chicken and vegetables can also be eaten in this form (like shawarma).
Or you can cut it into portions.

- 100 g chicken fillet;
- 50 grams of hard cheese;
- 1 tomato;
- greenery;
- 1 tbsp. mayonnaise.
How to cook:
Boil chicken fillet in salted water until cooked. Cool and cut into small cubes.

Don't forget about the tomato and herbs.
Roll the pita bread into a tight roll.
Cut the lavash roll into 2 parts and place in a well-heated frying pan. Please note that the pan must be dry, without oil. I used a grill pan, but this is not at all necessary; a regular pan will produce equally delicious fried pita bread with filling.
Fry the roll first on one side for 2-3 minutes until golden, and then turn it over to the other side and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
