Chicken Shawarma (Middle Eastern)

Omg that was ahmAZing!! Absolutely bomb!! I accidentally put the full amount of cheyenne and it wasn't spicy to me. The sauce was delightful too!

Favourite weekday dinner at home!! Delicious and healthy!

Amazing! Marinaded the chicken for 24 hours. I made the yogurt sauce and added extra lemon juice, paprika, extra garlic and cayenne pepper !!! I had it with pita, tomatoes and spinach next time I’ll use romaine !

Loved this one! We used the method of putting the chicken and marinade in a ziplock back and freezing. Then as it defrosts it marinates. This is my new favourite meal 😋

Marinated chicken for 4 hours, and it was delicious!

This was so tasty! I used a cast iron to give the chicken good color and the yogurt sauce really balanced the flavors really well.

Enjoyed on pita bread, similar to a gyro.

Personally, half the salt. Otherwise amazing.

Delicious made with chicken breast

Just made this for dinner! 5 stars from this family

This was amazing! Both kids ate without complaining. Would be a great option for bbq/dinners with friends.

Fantastic dish with great flavors! Paired with the flatbread mentioned in the recipe (super easy and fun to make!) and it was an instant family favorite!

Used chicken breast but will try with chicken thighs next time.

Will make it again for sure

Wow wow wow wow wow!!! I've never had schwarma before, but the ingredients were fairly familiar, so I thought I'd try it out. I'll be real. When I measured the spices for the marinade, I triple checked the amounts; but it all turned out amazing, so they must have been right! It also says to let the chicken marinade for hours. I only let it go for 30 minutes, and I can't imagine letting it go longer because the spices are STRONG. In the BEST way! When I took that first bite, I about feel in the for it was SO GOOD! The chicken has so much flavor that you NEED the flat bread and the vegetables and the yogurt sauce to balance out those flavors. This is SO GOOD!!!

I'm so happy with how these turned out! YUMMY! I followed this recipe just for the chicken (serving it alongside her pearl couscous salad — also tasty!). I used avocado oil instead of olive oil to marinate. Edit 3/5/24: made the wraps, did not like the sauce

Used this recipe as inspiration, however spice mix is missing a tsp of cinnamon, and cayenne isnt usually included. (would also use 1 tbsp of paprika rather than tsp) (1 tbsp of garlic powder is also easier than a clove). Traditional shawarma also uses tahini as a topping and Garlic sauce (toum) if anyone is interested in using these sauces next time, they really make the dish! As well as pickles for topping, lettuce and pickled turnips... Yum

Nice meal and great as leftovers.Very

Sensational. Loved by the whole family. Made with Nagi’s flatbreads

This was tastier than I expected, which was nice! I cooked rice pilaf to add to my wrap. I used Naan which was a little thick and would probably choose a different vehicle next time. The yogurt sauce went really well with it but I would add more garlic and omit the cumin next time since there is already a lot in the marinade. Or I would skip it and buy or make a garlic sauce. Yum!

Yummy! I doubled the chicken and we had all of the ingredients as a salad the next day. I went light on the spice since I have young kids.

Amazing. So tasty. I took the meat and loosely shredded it after cooking, then reopened it to the oven to crisp up a bit. Delicious.

I definitely didn’t read the instructions ahead of time. The chicken needed to marinade for 24 hours. So I had to make it a day later than planned. But it was delicious and worth it. I also bought the wrong kind of bread so I made it into a little flatbread pizza and it worked out. Very yummy!

Made the garlic sauce with datesyrup, best idea ever! Also used Skyr instead of yoghurt. Spices after own taste, herbs from own indoor garden. I'm in Foodhalla❤️

My boyfriend looooooved this recipe! And it was fairly easy!

Excellent!! I subbed the yogurt sauce for store bought taziki and it was perfect. Will make again!!

I was out of cayenne pepper and red onions so that was a bummer but when it comes to stepping out of my comfort zone with different spices and such they turned out pretty good! I'd probably do less coriander next time as I don't believe I'm a big fan of that one . But that's a personal preference.

Amazing!!!

I used half the cumin for the marinade and half the cumin for the yoghurt sauce. Also used half the chicken (4 thighs)
