Place 3 pieces of chicken breast in a bowl. Add 3.5 tablespoons of yogurt, 1.5 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of red chilli powder, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 2 teaspoons of paprika powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of dried coriander, 1 teaspoon of red chilli flakes, 1 teaspoon of fenugreek, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1 pinch of food color.
Mix all ingredients well with the chicken until fully coated. Cover the bowl and marinate for 1-2 hours.
In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of shredded lettuce, 0.5 cup of sliced red bell pepper, 0.5 cup of sliced cucumber, 0.5 cup of sliced tomato, 0.5 cup of sliced red onion, 0.5 cup of sliced radish, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh coriander, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Mix well to create the salad.
For the shawarma sauce, combine 0.5 cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of yogurt, 2 minced garlic cloves, 2 tablespoons of sesame seeds, 1 teaspoon of vinegar, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 0.25 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of oregano, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper powder in a bowl. Blend well using an immersion blender until smooth.
Heat a grill pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Place the marinated chicken breasts on the hot grill pan. Cover and cook for 10-15 minutes on one side.
Flip the chicken breasts to the other side. Cover again and cook for another 8-10 minutes, or until fully cooked through and grill marks are visible.
Remove the cooked chicken breasts from the pan and slice them into bite-sized pieces.
Lay out 1 tortilla. Spread a layer of the prepared shawarma sauce, then drizzle with 1 tablespoon of red chilli sauce and 1 tablespoon of tikka mayonnaise. Add half of the cooked chicken pieces, 0.5 cup of french fries, half of the prepared salad, and 0.25 cup of sliced pickled gherkins.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then tightly roll it up from the bottom to form a wrap. Repeat for the second tortilla.
Heat the grill pan again and rub 1 tablespoon of butter over the grill lines. Place the prepared wraps on the grill pan. Grill each side for 2-3 minutes, pressing down gently, until golden brown and grill marks appear.
Remove the grilled shawarma wraps from the pan. Cut each wrap in half and serve immediately.
