Shawarma Beef Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Beef

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, coriander, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Add the beef and coat it thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

  2. 2

    Cook the Beef

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the beef from the marinade and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness is reached. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Pita

    Warm the pita bread on the grill or in a microwave for a few seconds until soft. Fill each pita with sliced beef, cucumber, diced tomato, red onion, and drizzle with tahini sauce.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Top with fresh parsley and serve immediately with extra tahini sauce on the side if desired.
