Juicy chicken, creamy sour cream, sweet tomatoes and melted cheese, all baked inside crisp little lavash boats, make a dinner that looks as fun as it tastes. These individual boats are easy to serve, wonderfully comforting, and perfect for a cozy weeknight.

Ingredients
- 1 chicken breast (about 300 g / 10 oz)
- 1 large thin lavash (flatbread)
- 2 tomatoes, sliced
- 4-5 mushrooms, sliced
- 50 g (3.5 tbsp) sour cream
- 30 g (1 oz) hard cheese, grated
- Fresh dill, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Salt and spices to taste
Instructions
- Make shallow slashes across the top of the chicken breast.
- For the filling: mix the sour cream with the dill, garlic, salt, and spices.
- Shape the lavash into small boats and pin the sides with toothpicks to hold the shape.
- Coat the breast with the sour-cream mixture (inside the slashes too) and place it in a lavash boat. Tuck tomato and mushroom slices into the slashes. Season with extra salt and pepper.
- Bake at 200 C (400 F) for 35-40 minutes. Sprinkle with the grated cheese 10 minutes before the end, and bake until melted and golden.
- Remove the toothpicks and serve hot.
Tips
- Pin the lavash firmly so the boats keep their shape while the filling stays juicy.
- Add the cheese only near the end, so it melts golden without drying out.
