Steps

1

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips.
2

Marinate the chicken strips overnight in a mixture of yogurt, apple cider vinegar, lemon slices, orange slices, shawarma spices, cardamom pods, bay leaves, tomato paste, and salt.
3

Mix the marinade with the vegetable butter or margarine, then cook the chicken shawarma over low heat until the sauce is absorbed and the chicken is cooked through.
4

Prepare the pickled bread. Fill each sandwich with the cooked shawarma, add pickled cucumber slices, a little mayonnaise, and a drizzle of pomegranate molasses. Roll up the sandwiches, place them on a baking sheet, brush with butter, and bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
