Shawarma


Chicken Shawarma is originated from Arabic Cuisine but very famous in Asian as well as European Countries. Its spicy & juicy chicken filling with veggies and special sauce wrapped in pita bread is the most delicious street food in Pakistan, India, U.A.E, and other Asian & European countries.

It's very easy to cook, within less time and a few ingredients. First, we will make the fillings, then the sauce, and at last prepare shawarma.

I love this quick recipe & I hope you will also like it.

Now put a pan on heat & add the marinated mixture into the pan. There is no need to add any oil to the pan because we have already added oil to the mixture. Cook the chicken on medium flame until the water dries and the chicken becomes tender. The sheen of oil appears around the pan then turn off the flame.


Now take the pita bread/tortilla bread & spread with mayo garlic sauce then add chicken, tomato slices, onions & cucumber slices. Then spread some tomato garlic sauce and more mayo garlic sauce & wrap it slightly.
