Begin by preparing the marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, tomato paste, cumin, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a smooth paste.
Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1/8-inch thick. These should be as thin as possible for thorough marination and even cooking.
Add the sliced beef into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, to let the flavors meld.
Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F).
While the oven is preheating, finely slice the red onion and chop the fresh parsley. Set aside.
Prepare your baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Lay the marinated beef slices flat on the sheet, making sure they do not overlap.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and cook for 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the beef is cooked through and slightly crispy at the edges.
Meanwhile, slice the cucumber and tomatoes for serving.
When the beef is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
Warm the gluten-free flatbreads in a skillet or oven for a few minutes until soft and pliable.
To serve, place a portion of beef on each flatbread. Top with sliced onion, cucumber, tomato, a sprinkle of sumac, and chopped parsley for garnish.
Wrap the flatbreads tightly around the kebab filling and serve immediately. Enjoy your gluten-free beef doner kebab with your favorite side dish or sauce!
