Method

1. Preheat a conventional oven to 200 °C. Cut the pitta into pieces of about 3 cm, spread them on a tray and toast them in the oven for 6 minutes, until golden and crisp.
2. Meanwhile, if the chicken breast is thick, butterfly it and sprinkle both sides with paprika and a pinch of salt. Heat a griddle or ridged pan over medium-high heat and grill it for 5 minutes per side, until well marked and no longer pink inside; slice it.
3. Wash and tear the romaine; dice the tomatoes, cut the cucumber into half-moons and slice the radishes; roughly chop the parsley and mint.
4. Dress the vegetables and herbs with the oil, lemon juice, sumac and a pinch of salt.
5. Add the pitta and chicken and serve straight away, before the bread softens.
