Ingredients

  • 1 kg Chicken Thighs
  • 1 tbs Coriander
  • 1 tbs Cumin
  • 1 tbs Cardamom
  • 1 tsp Cayenne Pepper
  • 2 tsp Paprika
  • 2 tbs Lemon Juice
  • 3 tbs Olive Oil
  • 1 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1 Garlic Clove
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • Splash Lemon Juice
  • Sliced Lettuce
  • Sliced Tomato
  • 6 Pita Bread

Instructions

1
Combine the marinade elements in a large ziplock bag (or dish).
2
mix in the chicken and use your hands to make sure each piece is coated.
3
If using a ziplock bag, I find it convenient to close the bag then massage the bag to disperse the rub all over each chicken piece.
4
steep overnight or up to 24 hours.
5
Combine the Yoghurt condiment dip elements in a dish and incorporate.
6
wrap and put in the fridge until required (it will last for 3 days in the fridge).
7
scalding up barbecue/BBQ (or large heavy based wok on stove) on medium high.
8
You should not need to lubricate it because the marinade has lubricate in it and also thigh fillets have fat.
9
But if you are worried then lubricate your hotplate/barbecue.
10
(See notes for baking) Place chicken on the barbecue and bubble gently the first side for 4 to 5 mins until nicely charred, then turn and bubble gently the other side for 3 to 4 mins (the 2nd side takes less time).
11
Remove chicken from the barbecue and wrap loosely with foil.
12
Set aside to rest for 5 mins.
13
TO dish up shred chicken and pile onto platter alongside flatbreads, Salad and the Yoghurt condiment dip.
14
To make a wrap, get a piece of flatbread and smear with Yoghurt condiment dip.
15
Top with a bit of lettuce and tomato and Chicken Shawarma.
16
Roll up and enjoy!.
