Drain and rinse the chickpeas, and place them in a food processor.
Roughly chop the red bell pepper, onion, garlic cloves, and fresh parsley. Add them to the food processor with the chickpeas.
Add ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.
Pulse the mixture until it is well combined but still slightly chunky. Do not over-process.
Add the olive oil and breadcrumbs to the chickpea mixture and blend until it holds together.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into elongated kebab shapes.
Heat a grill pan or non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly oil it.
Cook the kebabs for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until they are evenly browned.
While the kebabs are cooking, slice the tomato and cucumber, and prepare the lettuce leaves.
In a small bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, and finely chopped mint to make a sauce.
Warm the flatbreads in a dry skillet or directly over the flame of a gas stove until soft.
To assemble the wraps, lay a lettuce leaf on each flatbread, add the cooked kebabs, sliced tomato, cucumber, and a generous spoonful of yogurt sauce.
Roll up the wraps tightly, secure with foil or parchment paper, and serve immediately.
