Grate the carrot, onion, and zucchini using a food processor to remove excess water.

Press the grated vegetables to extract as much moisture as possible.

Cut frozen chicken breasts into chunks and grind them fresh.

Combine the ground chicken with the grated vegetables, 1/4 cup flour, and 1 egg.

Mix well and refrigerate the mixture until ready to use.

Roll out the flatbread dough as thin as possible and cook on a flat pan.

Shape the chicken mixture into patties and cook them on the pan until done.

Serve with tomatoes, lettuce, and a cream made from sour cream and heavy cream.
