Chicken Shawarma
Bring this popular dish to your home. Chicken Shawarma with sumac and baharat spices makes a good party dish and burger-alternative. If you can marinate the chicken in advance, it will intensify the flavor.
Yogurt for Mayonnaise
The dressing basis is made with yogurt instead of mayonnaise. It’s lighter and makes up for the double oil in the chicken preparation. You might sprinkle it with extra sumac.
Not Just For Chicken
If you are not a chicken fan, mix the Shawarma Spices [1] in any other beef or vegetables dish. It always turns out delicious! We recommend this Mediterranean combination:
Greek Salad with Lebanese Potatoes
- In a BOWL, add romaine lettuce with tomatoes, cucumber, and tomatoes. Season with lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and Greek oregano. Add feta cheese and/ or black olives. Mix well.
- Cut potatoes in the size of large French fries. Mix with Shawarma Spices [1], salt to taste, and 3 tbsp olive oil. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes, turning midway.
