In a large bowl, combine gluten-free plain yogurt, lemon juice, garam masala, ground cumin, paprika, ground turmeric, minced garlic, ginger paste, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Cut the boneless chicken breasts into small, bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Stir until the chicken is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably longer for deeper flavor.
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once hot, add the marinated chicken pieces to the pan, discarding any excess marinade.
Cook the chicken for about 6-8 minutes on each side until fully cooked through and slightly charred on the edges.
Remove the chicken from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
Warm the gluten-free tortillas according to the package instructions.
To assemble the wraps, place a warm tortilla on a plate. Add a generous amount of cooked chicken tikka on each tortilla, followed by a layer of shredded lettuce, sliced cucumber, sliced red onion, chopped fresh cilantro, and chopped tomatoes.
Wrap it tightly and serve immediately. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.
Enjoy your flavorful and healthy gluten-free chicken tikka wraps!
