Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 17

Ingredients

1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs (thinly sliced)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 garlic cloves (minced)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cardamom
½ teaspoon cumin
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 head romaine lettuce (chopped)
3 roma tomatoes (chopped)
2 Persian cucumbers (chopped)
½ red onion (sliced)
2 ounces pickled sliced banana peppers
½ cup tahini sauce
Chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

Place the marinade ingredients in a large bowl: olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, paprika, cardamom, cumin, cinnamon and crushed red pepper; and whisk to blend.
Add the chicken into the large bowl with the marinade and stir with a spoon to evenly coat the chicken with the marinade. Cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least an hour or up to 24 hours.
Heat a large heavy bottomed skillet or cast iron skillet over medium high heat and add the marinated chicken to it. Cook, stirring occasionally until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
Divide the salad ingredients into four bowls. Add the cooked chicken shawarma on top and drizzle with the tahini sauce and serve with fresh parsley.
