Delicious and easy chicken shawarma at home American recipe

Sure, here's a recipe for making chicken shawarma the American way: Ingredients: - 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, thinly sliced - 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt - 2 tablespoons olive oil - 2 cloves garlic, minced - 1 teaspoon ground cumin - 1 teaspoon paprika - 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon - Salt and black pepper, to taste - Juice of 1 lemon - Pita bread or wraps - Toppings: shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced onions, pickles, tahini sauce, sauce (optional) Instructions: 1. In a bowl, combine the yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to form a marinade. 2. Add the thinly sliced chicken to the marinade, making sure each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results. 3. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. If using an indoor grill pan, lightly grease it with some olive oil. 4. Thread the marinated chicken slices onto skewers if using, or you can grill them directly on the grill. 5. Grill the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and nicely charred. Make sure to rotate the skewers or flip the chicken halfway through cooking. 6. While the chicken is grilling, you can warm the pita bread or wraps on the grill for a minute or so on each side until they are lightly toasted and pliable. 7. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, thinly slice the chicken pieces. 8. To assemble the shawarma wraps, place some shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced onions, and pickles down the center of each warmed pita bread or wrap. Add the sliced chicken on top. 9. Drizzle some tahini sauce and sauce over the chicken, if desired. 10. Roll up the wraps tightly, tucking in the sides as you go. You can wrap them in foil or parchment paper to help hold their shape. 11. Serve the chicken shawarma wraps immediately while warm, and enjoy! Feel free to customize the toppings and sauces according to your preferences. This recipe makes about 4-6 chicken shawarma wraps depending on the size of your pita bread or wraps. Enjoy your homemade American-style chicken shawarma!
