Shoarma Spice Mix

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I am amazed at how this tastes extremely similar to our local shawarma restaurant! I had it on chicken strips from mainly breast and some thy marinating in lemon juice as well like Lorac overnight. used all preground spices but did dry roast them until fragrant. As I didn't have any garlic powder used garlic salt and just added a little additional salt during frying in butter in my cast iron frying pan over medium high heat to brown a bit. I also separately fried until translucent white cooking onion which I added after cooked. I serve this with Recipe #409286 and a variation of Recipe #108234 & recipe#443414 & recipe#254171 for the full Lebanese meal from the restaurant, only better! A definite make over again when craving shawarma.

    Shoarma Spice Mix,Shoarma is so popular in Holland that you might forget it is from the Middle East! When we lived abroad I really missed it and tried to copy the spice mix that you can buy here in the shops. There are many makes and blends in the shops, they all taste different, now try the homemade mix! Note that there is no salt in the mix so do not forget to add with cooking, or if you give this as a gift to mention it. After you have tried this you can always make some changes to suit your own taste.,I am amazed at how this tastes extremely similar to our local shawarma restaurant! I had it on chicken strips from mainly breast and some thy marinating in lemon juice as well like Lorac overnight. used all preground spices but did dry roast them until fragrant.

A definite make over again when craving shawarma.,We were really happy with the flavor of this chicken and would like to make again many times. used all the spices mentioned except I added only 1/4 the amount of garlic powder and the other 3/4 onion powder from preference. I also added a small amount of cardamom and allspice and a table spoon of chicken curry spice mix. I sprayed an oven try with olive oil and sprinkled around half a finely cut onion sprinkled with some more of the spice, the the chicken on top and grilled in the oven. Once cooked I sprinkled with a little bit citric acid for some extra zing. Also I only marinated for one hour and it still turned out very nice. I served it with flat bread, mayonnaise, pickles, tomato, lettuce and french fries (put in the sandwich).
