- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups water (for crepe batter)
- 2 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
- 1 cup shredded lettuce

Instructions
- 1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix yogurt, garlic, cumin, and paprika. Coat chicken breasts and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 2. Prepare Crepe Batter: Combine flour and water in a bowl to create a smooth batter. Let it rest while heating a skillet.
