Easy Chicken Shawarma
Warmly spiced roasted chicken shaved thin and wrapped in flatbread — marinating for at least an hour (longer if you can) is what actually builds the shawarma flavour, rather than it just tasting like spiced chicken.

Toss the thinly sliced chicken thigh with the shawarma spice blend, then marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavour.

Heat a pan or grill until very hot, then roast or pan-fry the chicken in batches so it chars at the edges rather than steaming.

Cook until the chicken is cooked through and lightly charred, then warm the flatbread briefly.

Pile the shawarma chicken into the warm flatbread with yogurt sauce and pickles, then serve immediately.
