Chicken Shawarma Rice
A delicious chicken shawarma is extremely tender and tasty, well marinated.
Ingredients:
600g chicken thighs (skinless, boneless, flattened like a schnitzel, trimmed)
3 cloves of garlic (chopped)
1 onion, chopped and pureed
juice of 1 lemon (freshly squeezed)
1 tablespoon of cider (or white) vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil (3 to 4 tablespoons)
1 teaspoon of salt
½ teaspoon cumin
½ teaspoon caraway
½ teaspoon cardamom
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon cracked pepper
¼ teaspoon turmeric
¼ teaspoon clove
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (or sweet paprika)
For the Tahini Sauce Ingredients:
2 teaspoons thina paste (sesame paste)
lemon juice (freshly squeezed, a little water if needed)
2 cloves of garlic (2 to 3, crushed)
a pinch of salt
Preparation method:
1. Combine marinade ingredients in a large freezer bag (or bowl). Add the chicken and use your hands to make sure each piece is coated. If using a freezer bag, seal the bag and massage the marinade into each piece of chicken. Marinate overnight or up to 24 hours for best results.
2. Combine tahini sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
3. After 24 hours heat up your Panini grill or BBQ like I do. Place the chicken on the grill and cook the first side for 4 to 5 minutes until it is well grilled, then turn and cook the other side for 3 to 4 minutes (the 2nd side takes less time).
4. Remove chicken from BBQ and cover with aluminum foil. Set aside. Let stand for 5 minutes then cut chicken into strips.
5. Serve in a pita, add tomato, cucumber, onions and your tahina and for a little more greediness some French fries to accompany the whole ^-^
