Chicken Shawarma

Shawarma is made from thin pieces of chicken or lamb, each layer seasoned carefully then stacked up on a vertical rotisserie before being thinly sliced to serve. Making a huge shawarma isn’t easy to do at home, but you can still enjoy the same seasoning and juicy pieces of chicken if you marinate and grill individual thighs!

To make this recipe, you'll need:

BIBER BLEND: 2 tsp

KAMMUN BLEND: 2 tsp

QARFA BLEND: 1 tsp

SUMAK BLEND: tsp

I've reviewed this before but I just had to give it a big shout out again. I had this on day one of my weekend camping adventure. I mainaded the chicken and put together the dry ingredients for the bulgar wheat before I set off. After I set up on the banks of the river Thames this was a joy to rustle up. It is just so easy to put together when the prep is all done before-hand. With a little greek salad and a pitta bread I couldn't have been happier with my al freso feast. Thanks guys, you always make life taste fantastic at home and on the road.

Thank you so much for coming back to leave another review Debbie! Great to hear our blends could be part of your camping adventure, and your riverside feast sounds absolutely perfect!

Some Monday Night Freestyling... Welcome to Shawarma King! Not quite the recipe, I used chicken mince for kofte-style Shawarma burgers (with pita, salad, tzatziki etc). Hopefully a fun way to introduce the kids to Mezze. Disappointed there were no leftovers for lunch!
