Beef Shawarma Ingredients

Method

Beef Shawarma Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Beef

    In a large bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, cinnamon, black pepper, salt, and lemon juice. Add the beef and coat it well. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Cook the Beef

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the beef from the marinade and cook it for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches desired doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Shawarma

    Place the sliced beef on a pita or wrap. Top with fresh vegetables and drizzle with tahini or garlic sauce. Roll up the pita or wrap tightly.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the Beef Shawarma warm with extra sauce on the side.
