Lebanese Chicken Shawarma Recipe
A tasty midweek treat and better than a takeaway...serves 4
Ingredients:
450g Organic Diced Chicken Breast or Diced Leg
250g Fat Free Yoghurt
1 Tbsp Ground Cumin
1/2 Tbsp Ground Coriander
1/2 Tbsp Turmeric
1 Tsp Cayenne Pepper
1 Tsp Ground Black Pepper
4 Flatbreads
200g Pickled Red Cabbage
Jar of Guindilla Peppers
1 Red Onion diced
Method:
Marinade the chicken in half the yoghurt and the spices for half an hour.
Preheat the oven to gas mark 6 or 180 fan. Line a baking sheet with greaseproof paper and spread the chicken out on the sheet - spray with a little oil on each piece. Cook for 20-25 minutes until the yoghurt covering is starting to brown.
Warm the flatbreads in the same oven for approx 1-2 minutes.
Serve by spreading a thin layer of yoghurt on each along with a good dollop of red cabbage, red onion and as many guindilla peppers as you fancy. I like to spice them up with some Sriracha sauce as well. You can either roll the flatbread and eat lke a wrap or just eat with a knife and fork - quick and delicious!
