Method

Fries

1

Prepare the Fries

Cut the russet potatoes into fries. Rinse under cold water and dry thoroughly. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).

2

Fry the Potatoes

Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels, seasoning with salt immediately.

Chicken Shawarma

3

Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, mix minced garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken thighs, coating them well. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

4

Cook the Chicken

Preheat the grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken thighs for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Let rest, then slice thinly.

Assembly

Assemble the Poutine

On a plate, layer the fries, followed by the sliced chicken shawarma. Top with cheese curds, hot gravy, chopped parsley, and drizzle with tahini sauce.
