Chicken shawarma kebabs
Grab a pack of pitta breads for this easy 30-minute meal; spiced chicken, onions and peppers are skewered and grilled before being drizzled in a garlic yogurt dressing. If you’ve got a bit more time on your hands, take a look at our chilli-marinated chicken kebabs, too.
Method
Heat the grill to medium. Spread the onions and peppers over a large baking tray/sheet, drizzle with oil, then toss to coat.
In a large bowl, toss the chicken chunks and baharat spice mix with a drizzle of oil and some salt and black pepper. Thread the chunks onto 4 skewers. Put the skewers on top of the vegetables, then grill for 10-12 minutes, turning the skewers frequently, until the chicken is cooked through (the juices will run clear when pierced with a skewer) and the vegetables have lightly charred.
Meanwhile, grate half the garlic into a small bowl, then mix with the yogurt and lemon juice. Season to taste. Rub one side of each pitta/flatbread with the remainder of the garlic clove, then put under the grill to warm through for a minute or so.
Put the warm flatbreads on a plate/platter, then top with the grilled vegetables and chicken skewers. Drizzle with a little garlic yogurt and pomegranate molasses, add fresh coriander and serve with the lemon wedges.

Not sure how to get to shawrama paste ?
Thanks for your comment. The food team recommend using baharat spice mix (from large supermarkets), mixed with some oil to create a marinade (see step 2). We hope you give it a go!
