Ingredients

  • chicken400 g thin slices
  • yogurt1/3 cup
  • lemon1 juiced
  • garlic3 cloves minced
  • oregano1 tsp
  • flatbread3

Method

  1. Marinate the chicken

    Combine the yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano and a pinch of salt, then coat the chicken slices all over and rest for 15 min. The yogurt and lemon tenderise the meat and help it brown, so give it at least those few minutes.

  2. Arrange in the basket

    Lay the chicken slices flat in a single layer so they crisp rather than steam. Shake off any thick clumps of marinade first, because a heavy wet coat will stew and go pale instead of catching colour at the edges.

  3. Turn halfway

    Flip each slice at the halfway point so both sides get direct heat and brown evenly. Turning also stops the down-facing side from sitting in the juices that pool underneath it and turning soggy.

  4. Slice and fill

    Air fry at 190°C for 20 min until the chicken is browned at the edges and the juices run clear with no pink inside. Slice it thin across the grain, which keeps each strip tender, then pile into warm flatbread.
