Cooking Instructions

2 mins

1

Roast 1/2 tsp of fennel seed, cumin seed, coriander seed, ground cinnamon, allspice, cloves, smoked paprika and ground cardamom on a non-stick pan to let the aromatics out, take off heat when you start seeing it smoke, and transfer spices to bowl.
2

Blend together 4 TBL of goat or sheep yogurt, 1 TBL of tahini, 4 cloves of garlic, a couple bay leaves and a few drizzles of extra virgin olive oil.
3

Pour in all spices into the blender, and continue blending.
4

Lay out chicken thighs on countertop and hammer them flat. I like to put it between layers of plastic wrap to minimize chicken splatter.
5

Coat all chicken thighs in marinade in a non-metal bowl, make sure all the chicken has been coated. Cover bowl and let it marinade overnight.
6

Stack chicken onto a vertical spit and cook for 2 hours at 400 Degrees.
7

Carve and Serve

I found this recipe somewhere online originally. My family loves it, especially with white sauce, chickpea salad, and baba ghanoush. It is delicious in a wrap or with rice.

Super flavorful and juicy, spice-marinated chicken that has become a quick household favorite. Adapted from RecipeTinEats, it's an easy and approachable version that can be cooked in the oven. Serve with rice or pita and a side of yogurt sauce.

While shawarma is popular across the Middle East, it is also commonly enjoyed in Palestine. Thinly sliced marinated meat (usually chicken or lamb) is roasted on a vertical spit or cooked in a skillet and then served in a wrap or on a plate with tahini sauce, pickles, and vegetables.

I adapted this recipe from www.recipetineats.com. It's super flavourful and easy to make. It's great for a low calorie diet too if you skip the flatbread and have the chicken with a big plate of lettuce, tomato and cucumber instead.
