“Chicken Shawarma” from “RecipeTin Eats Dinner”








Chicken Shawarma is easily in our family’s Top Five Favourite Dishes of all time. Usually, I make this one from Nigella , but we’ve tried other versions too . As Andrew was going to be home for a Special Guest Appearance (to look after Buddy the dog for the weekend when we went away), I thought I would treat him to one of his favourite dinners.



We were not disappointed. The spice mixture was a bit different to Nigella’s, but just as delicious. I did stray from the directions, however. We were meant to fry the chicken, or to use a barbecue, but as I had a million other things to do, I did it how I always do– roast it in a 200C/400F oven– which worked a treat. Honestly, it’s so much easier because you only need to bang it into a cooking tray and let the oven do all the work.



Shawarma for the win. It must have been good because by the time we returned on Sunday, the leftovers were completely gone.
