Ingredients
- 1000 g chicken breast
- 1000 g chicken thigh
- 100 g shawarma paste
- 100 g Greek yogurt
- 30 g Greek yogurt
- 5 g salt
- 3 g paprika
- 15 ml olive oil
Method
- Cut each chicken breast or thigh in half to get thinner fillets. Place parchment paper on top and gently pound with a rolling pin until uniformly thin.
- In a bowl, place the chicken and add the shawarma paste, Greek yogurt, paprika, olive oil, and salt. Mix everything well until the meat is completely coated.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Stack the meat in an oven-safe loaf pan, cover with aluminum foil, and bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove the aluminum foil and bake for another 20 minutes. Let it rest for 10 minutes, pour off most of the juices (reserve a little), unmold onto a cutting board, and slice thinly. Drizzle again with the reserved juices.
- Serve the chicken slices with rice, salad, hummus or tzatziki, or wrap in flatbread for a wrap.
