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
soak overnight or up to 24 hours.
5
Combine the Yoghurt coulis elements in a dish and incorporate.
6
put a lid on and put in the fridge until required (it will last for 3 days in the fridge).
7
mildly hot char-broil/BBQ (or large heavy based pot on stove) on medium high.
8
You should not need to fat it because the marinade has fat in it and also thigh fillets have fat.
9
But if you are worried then fat your hotplate/char-broil.
10
(See notes for baking)
Place chicken on the char-broil and mildly hot the first side for 4 to 5 mins until nicely charred, then turn and mildly hot the other side for 3 to 4 mins (the 2nd side takes less time).
11
Remove chicken from the char-broil and put a lid on loosely with foil.
12
Set aside to rest for 5 mins.
13
TO enjoy
cut chicken and pile onto platter alongside flatbreads, Salad and the Yoghurt coulis.
14
To make a wrap, get a piece of flatbread and smear with Yoghurt coulis.
15
Top with a bit of lettuce and tomato and Chicken Shawarma.
16
Roll up and enjoy!.
