Chicken Shawarma Sandwich

Source: My own imagination and love of shawarma

Tried it: YES

Thoughts: Great! Next time I will put more chicken on the sandwich and use a pickle with more flavor. Best with the toum (garlic sauce) made a day ahead so it can be chilled overnight.

How this came together:

Inspired by the abundance of garlic sauce from the previous night's experiment, I stopped at the store for some thin pita and chicken and got to work...


  • Placed the pita in a 250 degree oven to warm while the rest was being prepared.
  • Thinly sliced the chicken and sauteed it in olive oil and greek spices:

  • Chopped up some tomatoes & dill pickles, then layered the garlic sauce, chicken, tomatoes and pickles on the warm pita:


  • Rolled it up, secured with a toothpick, and enjoyed with some other Mediterranean treats! Delish.
