- Step 2: Grill the Chicken – Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill chicken for 5–7 minutes per side, until fully cooked (internal temperature 165°F / 74°C) and lightly charred. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.

- Step 4: Assemble the Wraps – Warm pita breads in a skillet or oven. Spread a generous layer of garlic yogurt sauce on each pita. Add sliced grilled chicken, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion. Garnish with fresh parsley. Fold or roll the pita and serve immediately.
