Equipment

Method

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken, olive oil, shawarma spice mix, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

  4. In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
  5. In a small mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix well to combine.
  6. To assemble the shawarma rice bowls, divide the cooked rice evenly among four bowls. Top each bowl with the cooked chicken and vegetables. Drizzle the garlic yogurt sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped parsley, cilantro, and mint.
