Here is how you make Chicken Shawarma Sandwich Recipe:

Marination: Mix all ingredients well and marinate the chicken overnight in the fridge. To get the most flavor try to marinate at least 6-8 hours, and if you have plenty of time a 2-day marination is ideal.Preparation:Grill the marinated chicken using a panini grill/George Forman grill for about 15 minutes. You can also cook the chicken on a BBQ grill if so you wish. Once cooked, shred the chicken thinly as in the photo below and it?s now ready to be used in a sandwich.Shawarma Sandwich:Spread Lebanese garlic dip/paste on a pita bread diagonally, add the shredded chicken, sliced Middle Eastern cucumber pickles and sliced tomatoes. Roll the sandwich as in a Burrito, grill on a clean panini grill for a couple of minutes, serve warm and enjoy!Click here for our Lebanese Garlic Paste recipe.Additional Tips:? Try marinating a mix of 75% chicken breast and 25% skinless boneless chicken thighs. The fat in the thighs gives the chicken a nice kick when grilled? Add grilled tomatoes in the sandwich instead of raw tomatoes? Some restaurants add french fries in the sandwich, others add a cabbage/mayo salad to the sandwich.? Baking or broiling in the oven will rid the chicken of its juice and must be avoided if possible. We found that using a panini grill cooks faster and keeps the moisture inside the chicken? You can get middle eastern cucumber pickles from Middle Eastern grocery stores. Use only salted pickles.? Try adding a small dash of Nutmeg powder to the marinadeEnjoy and let us know how it goes www.mamaslebanesekitchen.comServing Size:?5 cup servings .Number of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user LEBANESEKITCHEN.
