For the Chicken Shawarma

  • 500 g boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts, thinly sliced into strips

  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken strips and toss to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) to allow the flavors to infuse.
  • Cook the Chicken: Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Prepare the Garlic Sauce: In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and well-blended.
  • Cook the Chips (Fries): If using an air fryer, toss the potato chips with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and cook in the air fryer until golden and crispy. Alternatively, bake in the oven according to package or personal recipe instructions.
  • Assemble the Loaded Fries: Spread the cooked chips on a serving platter. Top with the cooked chicken shawarma, followed by the diced red onion, quartered cherry tomatoes, and sliced spring onion. Drizzle with the garlic yogurt sauce and sprinkle with freshly chopped coriander.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Chicken Shawarma Loaded Fries warm, and enjoy this delicious take on a fakeaway favorite!
