Step cooking
- On chicken breasts (0.4 kg) we make incisions to make them flatter, so it will be more convenient to fry them evenly. Mix 0.5 tsp. coriander and ground garlic. Add a quarter tsp. ground pepper and a pinch of chili pepper flakes. Pour 1 tsp. salt. Sprinkle chicken with this mixture and gently rub it with your fingers. A couple of garlic cloves are not cleaned, but simply washed, after which we crush the flat side of the knife.
- We heat the grill pan, pour a little vegetable oil into it - just a couple of tablespoons.
- We spread the chicken breasts in the pan. Next to the meat we place the crushed garlic cloves and a couple of sprigs of dried rosemary and thyme - the herb and garlic will give the meat their flavor. Fry the breasts on both sides until tender, very briefly, if they are cut thin enough - 8-10 minutes are enough. Put the meat on the wire rack to stack the extra juice.
- Cut the half of the onion (about 65 g) into very thin half rings and place in a bowl. In the onion squeeze the juice from half of the lime (or lemon). Pour 10 g of sugar there, mix well. In such a marinade, onions turn out to be unusually tasty.
- We combine in a separate bowl 100 g of mayonnaise and ketchup, mix. We clean a couple of garlic cloves and cut them finely (or you can skip through the garlic shed). We spread the garlic in a tomato-mayonnaise mass, mix. Add black pepper and Italian herbs to taste, stir well again. We taste the sauce, if desired, add salt. For convenience, the sauce can be poured into a bottle of ketchup.
- Finely chop 150-200 g of Beijing cabbage (take only the soft part). Thinly cut 4 cherry tomatoes (or half a regular tomato). Finely chop a couple of tablespoons of cilantro.
- Thinly chop 35 g of bell pepper. Grate 60 g of cheese on a fine grater. Cut the chicken breasts into small pieces.
- Considering that the amount of prepared filling is enough for 4 shawarma, we spread the products in a certain order, dividing their total amount into 4 parts. First, apply sauce to the pita bread.
- We spread the cabbage.
- Add sweet pepper, tomatoes, cilantro, pickled onions. Put chicken slices on top, pour it with sauce.
- The final touch - sprinkle with grated cheese.
- We wrap pita bread in the form of an envelope. We lay the shawarma seam down on a dry preheated grill pan and heat it for a couple of minutes on both sides. You can do this in the oven, the heating time is 7-8 minutes. But the most delicious shawarma is obtained when it is heated at the stake.
