Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Marinate the Chicken

In a large bowl, combine yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, turmeric, coriander, cinnamon, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Add the chicken thighs and coat them well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

2

Cook the Chicken

Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

3

Prepare the Platter

On a large serving platter, arrange the sliced shawarma chicken, pita bread, fresh vegetables, hummus, and tahini sauce. Serve warm.
