Lay a large piece of baking paper on a clean surface. Spoon half of the chicken mixture onto the baking paper. Cover with another piece of baking paper and, using a rolling pin, roll the chicken mixture out as thinly as possible into a rectangular shape.

Carefully remove the top layer of baking paper. Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the flattened chicken mixture into a log, using the remaining baking paper to help you keep it compact and even. Repeat with the other half of the chicken mixture to create a second log.

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F. Place the chicken logs (you might need to cook them in batches depending on your air fryer size) into the air fryer basket. Air-fry for 10 to 12 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly browned. The internal temperature should reach 165°F. Once cooked, remove and let rest for a few minutes.

While the chicken cooks, prepare the sumac onions. In a small bowl, combine the thinly sliced red onion, sumac, and lemon juice. Toss to coat and set aside to marinate slightly.

Once the chicken doner logs have rested, thinly slice or shred the cooked chicken meat. This can be done with a sharp knife or by hand.

To assemble the wraps: Lay a tortilla flat. Spread a generous amount of garlic mayo sauce over the surface. Layer with shredded lettuce, sliced or diced tomatoes, the prepared sumac onions, sliced pickled cucumbers, and torn green chili peppers.

Pile a portion of the sliced or shredded chicken doner meat on top of the vegetables. Tightly roll the tortilla into a wrap, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling.

Heat a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the assembled wraps seam-side down on the hot pan and toast for 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown with visible grill marks. This will also help seal the wrap.

Serve the chicken doner wraps immediately, garnished with fresh chopped parsley or cilantro. These are excellent served alongside 'doner loaded chips' (fries topped with shredded chicken doner meat and additional sauces).
