Ingredients
- ["2 lb / 1 kg chicken thigh fillets, skinless and boneless (6 pieces approximately 5oz/150g each)", "Marinade", "1 large garlic clove, minced (or 2 small cloves)", "1 tbsp ground coriander", "1 tbsp ground cumin", "1 tbsp ground cardamon", "1 tsp ground cayenne pepper (or to taste)", "2 tsp smoked paprika", "2 tsp salt", "Black pepper", "2 tbsp lemon juice", "3 tbsp olive oil", "Yoghurt Sauce", "1 cup Greek yoghurt", "1 clove garlic, crushed", "1 tsp cumin", "Squeeze of lemon juice", "Salt and pepper", "To Serve", "6 flatbreads (Lebanese or pita bread)", "Shredded Red Cabbage, Carrot and Mint Salad (\"Salad\"") (see notes)""]"
Directions
-
1Combine the marinade ingredients in a large ziplock bag (or bowl).
-
2Add the chicken and use your hands to make sure each piece is coated. If using a ziplock bag, I find it convenient to close the bag then massage the bag to disperse the rub all over each chicken piece.
-
3Marinate overnight or up to 24 hours.
-
4Combine the Yoghurt Sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix. Cover and put in the fridge until required (it will last for 3 days in the fridge).
-
5Make the Salad.
-
6Heat grill/BBQ (or large heavy based pan on stove) on medium high. You should not need to oil it because the marinade has oil in it and also thigh fillets have fat. But if you are worried then oil your hotplate/grill.
-
7Place chicken on the grill and cook the first side for 4 to 5 minutes until nicely charred, then turn and cook the other side for 3 to 4 minutes (the 2nd side takes less time).
-
8Remove chicken from the grill and cover loosely with foil. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
-
9To Serve
-
10Slice chicken and pile onto platter alongside flatbreads, Salad and the Yoghurt Sauce.
-
11To make a wrap, get a piece of flatbread and top with a bit of salad, Chicken Sharwarma and a drizzle of Yoghurt Sauce.
