Lavash Pizza

There are many kinds of lavash. There are crackers, my least favorite. Then, there’s a very thin, Armenian kind of lavash that is perfect for wraps. Sometimes I get naughty and make fajitas with it And finally, there is the Georgian kind. The thickest one. And not just any. The one with a cut in the middle. The favorite!

Mama’s chicken stew is a bit different than what we usually make around here. Light, with less fat, but still full of colors and flavors. She did use to make it in a classic way, but over the years, her cooking has become more and more light, and there was less and less roux and fat. This recipe has no ambition to substitute the classic one. Nor to say that it’s better this way. Simply, I wanna offer something slightly different to those who need or want to eat lighter.

You can’t go wrong with certain combinations. Chicken & lemon, or chicken & rosemary for example. Even better if you combine them. And what makes this dish special is the sweet and sour taste of caramelized grilled lemons. Simple perfection.
