Ingredients
For the Chicken Marinade:
1 lb boneless chicken thighs or breasts, sliced
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp plain yogurt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp turmeric
½ tsp cayenne pepper (adjust for spice)
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Wrap:
Flatbread or pita bread
1 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 small tomato, diced (optional)
Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
For the Sauce:
½ cup garlic sauce, tahini sauce, or hummus
Instructions
Step 1: Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, mix olive oil, yogurt, garlic, and spices.
Add the sliced chicken and coat well. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour (overnight for best flavor).
Step 2: Cook the Chicken
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
Cook the marinated chicken until golden brown and fully cooked (about 4-5 minutes per side). Set aside.
Step 3: Assemble the Wrap
Warm the flatbread or pita on a skillet.
Spread garlic sauce, tahini, or hummus onto the bread.
Add the cooked chicken, shredded cheese, onion, tomato, and fresh herbs.
Wrap tightly in parchment paper or foil.
Step 4: Serve
Pair the shawarma wrap with crispy fries and your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips:
Add pickles or chili sauce for extra flavor.
Use a panini press to make the wrap crispier.
Substitute chicken with lamb, beef, or tofu for variations.
