chicken-shawarma-recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts (thinly cut)
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cardamom pods
  • 1 teaspoon allspice
  • juice from 1 lemon

For Chicken Shawarma sauce:

  • 1 cup tahini
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons yogurt

Pita Feelings:

  • 8 loaves of pita bread or 4 large
  • thinly slice cucumbers
  • thinly sliced onions
  • 1/2 teaspoon sumac
  • thinly sliced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • pickle slices (optional)

How to make Chicken Shawarma:

  • Combine all ingredients except for chicken, fillings, and sauce ingredients to make marinade. If it seems a little dry, add a little olive oil (a tablespoon at a time). Here is an excellent tahini recipe, if you do not have some handy.
  • Add chicken, cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours, preferable overnight.
  • In a stockpot or large saucepan, cook chicken over medium heat for 45 minutes or until done. Be sure not to overcook! If chicken becomes a little dry, add a few tablespoons of water throughout cooking duration.
  • While chicken is cooking, prepare the sauce. Combine sauce ingredients and mix well. Set aside.
  • Take the onions, tomatoes, cucumbers and sprinkle with sumac. Add other filling ingredients in a large bowl and combine well.
  • When the chicken is done, you can shred it, slice it, or leave into large pieces.
  • As long as it it thinly cut, there is not much difference. I prefer to cut mine into wide strips.
  • Prepare the Pita: Place enough chicken on pita that cover 1/4 of the loaf.
  • Add veggies and pour sauce.
  • Roll like a soft taco or burrito and you have shawarma!
  • You can also stuff the pocket of the pita if you like.
  • Serving Shawarma: You can serve shawarma with fries, falafel, hummus, or with a salad like tabouleh.
