Today, Shawarma has gained global popularity, inspiring countless variations and adaptations in many countries.
chicken thighs
🥗Healthier: chicken breast
💰Cheaper: bone-in chicken
Chicken breast is leaner, while bone-in chicken can be more economical.
yogurt
🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt
💰Cheaper: sour cream
Greek yogurt offers a thicker texture and more protein.
olive oil
🥗Healthier: avocado oil
💰Cheaper: vegetable oil
Avocado oil has a higher smoke point, while vegetable oil is often less expensive.
pita bread
🥗Healthier: whole wheat pita
💰Cheaper: flatbread
Whole wheat pita adds fiber, while flatbread can be a budget-friendly option.
Prepare the marinade by mixing Greek yogurt, regular yogurt, and lemon juice in a bowl.
Add cumin, paprika, dried oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper to the yogurt mixture and mix well.
Score the chicken breast to ensure even cooking and better absorption of the marinade.
Massage the marinade onto the chicken, ensuring it is well coated.
Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour (or overnight if desired).
Prepare the garlic sauce by mixing equal parts mayonnaise and yogurt, then adding minced garlic, honey, lemon juice, and seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat the grill and add the leg quarter fillet first, as it will take longer to cook and stay juicy.
If desired, add a little olive oil to the grill, especially for the chicken breast to prevent sticking.
Grill the chicken for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side until cooked through.
Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Plate the grilled chicken shawarma and serve with the garlic yogurt sauce.
