Chicken Shwarma

It’s just not practical to have this kind of dinner around the dining room table; it’s more fun to have it as a stand-up meal, an informal meal around the kitchen island, like a street meal at home if you will. Some of my very favorite foods have been eaten standing under some awning, on some street in Jerusalem, Berlin, London, & Bangkok, crunched up napkin in my hand, talking with my mouth full, watching all the people rush by. Chicken Shwarma is that kind of meal – one to be eaten, sloppily surrounded by friends & family.

This recipe suggests using my Tzatziki Sauce. Tzatziki & other dressing recipes can be found in my Fill Yer Fridge section here. For a Kosher meal feel free to modify & use baba ganoush &/or hummus instead of tzatziki, or tofu instead of yogurt so that it is a meat meal.

Here’s a great spice blend to have in your pantry
