Ingredients

  • 500 g Chicken Thighs Boneless, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1 tsp Ground Coriander
  • 1 tsp Paprika Smoked
  • 1 tsp Ground Turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Chili Powder adjust to taste
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • Salt And Black Pepper To Taste
  • 4 Pitta Bread Or Flatbreads
  • 1 small Red Onion Thinly sliced
  • Lettuce Topping
  • Tomatoes Topping
  • Yoghurt or Tahini Sauce For Serving

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, chili powder, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
  • Add the thinly sliced chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
  • Preheat your grill or barbecue to medium-high heat.
  • Thread the marinated chicken slices onto metal skewers or wooden skewers that have been soaked in water for about 30 minutes.
  • Grill the chicken skewers for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally until they are cooked through and have a nice char on the edges.
  • While the chicken is grilling, warm the pita bread or flatbreads on the grill or in a dry frying pan.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skewers.
  • To assemble, place a warm pita bread on a plate. Top it with slices of grilled chicken, thinly sliced red onion, fresh lettuce, and tomatoes.
  • Drizzle with natural yogurt or tahini sauce.
  • Fold the pita bread over the filling to create a kebab wrap.
  • Serve your delicious Chicken Doner Kebabs immediately.

Notes

You can customise your kebabs with additional toppings like cucumbers, red cabbage, or your favourite hot sauce for an extra kick of flavour.
