How to make delicious Shawarma in Pita bread.


Difficulty: Easy

What you are going to need.


  • Cumin (2 tsp)
  • Turmeric (2 tsp)
  • Cinnamon (1 tsp)
  • Ground black pepper (2 tsp)
  • Cayenne Pepper (1 tsp)
  • Paprika powder (2 tsp)
  • Crushed Clove (1 tsp)
  • Coriander powder (2 tsp)
  • Garlic powder (2 tsp)
  • Ginger powder (2 tsp)
  • Sea salt (1 tsp)
  • Pita bread
  • Spring onion
  • Small onion
  • Cucumber
  • Iceberg Lettuce
  • Fresh Coriander
  • Garlic Sauce 
  • 500g Chicken Breast or meat of your choice.
Step 1. 

Mix the Cumin, Turmeric, Cinnamon, Ground black pepper, Cayenne pepper, Paprika powder, Crushed clove, Coriander powder, Garlic powder, Ginger powder, Sea Salt into a bowl and mix in Vegetable oil (1 ½ tbs) to create the Marinade.

Step 2.

Cut the chicken breasts into small strips, add to the mixing bowl and make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the Shawarma marinade. Whilst the chicken is sitting in the marinade slice and dice your cucumber and onion into small squares and chop your spring onion and lettuce.

Step 3.

Throw your chicken into the frying pan on high heat for around 2-3 minutes. Keep moving the meat around so it does not burn then lower to a medium heat and cook until its no longer pink inside.

Heat up your Pita bread, I just put them in the toaster and slice them open to form a pocket. Squirt some garlic sauce in the bottom with a sprinkle of onion and cucumber then pile in your chicken Shawarma.

Finish off by adding your lettuce, spring onion, coriander and more Garlic sauce.. Lovely!


 
Chicken Shawarma, food of the gods!
