Cooking Instructions
Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, turmeric, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Add the chicken thighs and coat them well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
Cook the Chicken
Preheat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Prepare the Wrap
While the chicken is resting, prepare your pita bread by warming it slightly. Spread a generous amount of hummus on each pita.
Serve
Wrap the pita around the filling and serve immediately. Enjoy your Swimming Shawarma!
