Chicken Shawarma Kebab – Take Outs at Home!
This recipe is so delicious and easy that you’ll never need to go for takeaway kebabs again!
Traditional Lebanese kebabs are a classic street food. They’re really simple; pita bread, meat, sauce, pickles, maybe some tomato…
Kebabs in New Zealand are a full meal with all the salad trimmings; fresh, filling and lip-smackingly delicious.
We use Chicken Shawarma spices that can be purchased from our online store, but if you’re keen to make your own spice mix, this one is pretty good.
If you are barbequing your meat, turn your barbeque on high now.
Cube the chicken breast into bite-sized portions, sprinkle with the Chicken Shawarma spices and mix. Get your hands in there! Tightly pack the chicken onto the skewers . Don’t forget to wash your hands thoroughly afterwards.
This could be prepared the day before for a more intense flavour.
Grill your chicken kebabs for 10-15 mins turning once, until golden.
Prepare all fresh ingredients and line up ready for kebab assembly.
Quickly heat your pita bread in the microwave for 10 seconds each. Time may vary depending on your microwave model.
Take your Alamir Bakery Pita Bread and split it along the outside edge.
Take two pita halves and overlap them, inside up, with two centimetres overhang each side.
Spread a line of Alamir Bakery Hummus down the centre, leaving 4 centimetres clear.
Add the chicken from one skewer, then top with your choice of salad ingredients.
Drizzle with tarator.
Fold one end of the pita bread inwards, then roll from one side to the other, keeping the kebab nice and tight.
Et voila! Enjoy your Lebanoms!
