Combine the yogurt, olive oil, tomato paste, crushed garlic, cumin, red pepper, sumac, thyme, black pepper, and salt to make the marinade.
Slice the chicken thighs into thin strips, coat with the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Roll the marinated chicken tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for 2 hours, so it firms up for slicing.
Unwrap the roll, slice it very thinly, and saute in a large hot pan for 12 to 15 minutes, until curled and browned at the edges.
Serve wrapped in lavash with sumac onion salad, roasted pepper, and sliced chicken.
💡 Tip: Roll the marinated chicken and freeze it for 2 hours, this makes thin slicing much easier after marinating.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve wrapped in lavash with sumac onion salad, roasted pepper, fresh parsley, and ayran.
