Chicken Shawarma

Ingredients:

- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 large red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
- Pita bread or flatbreads, for serving

Directions:

1. In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground paprika, ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.

2. Cut the chicken thighs into thin strips and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for maximum flavour.

3. Preheat a grill or pan over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken strips until fully cooked and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes per side.

4. In a separate bowl, mix plain yogurt, white vinegar, and lemon juice to create the sauce.

5. Warm the pita bread or flatbreads. Assemble the Chicken Shawarma by placing grilled chicken strips on the bread, topping with sliced red onions, and drizzling the yogurt sauce over the top.

7. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
