Easy Chicken Shwarma

on 01/08/17

What is better than walking down the street in Israel eating a Chicken Shwarma pits?? Nothing. Have to recreate the tastes at home with this recipe. Take a picture and tag me on Facebook. So yummy!

  • Category: Dinner, Gluten Free

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken thighs
  • 2 teaspoons pepper
  • Dash of cayenne pepper to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 red onion

Instructions

  1. 1. Mix the spices, olive oil, lemon and garlic together in a bowl and then add the chicken thighs and mix really well. Let marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
  2. 2. Preheat the oven to 425°. Add a red onion cut into quarters to the container of chicken thighs, toss, and then place in a pan. Cook the chicken thighs for 50 minutes.
  3. 3. When done cooking, the chicken should be crisp and brown on the outside. To further crisp it sauté it in a medium size pan with 2 tablespoons oil. Remove the chicken thighs from the oven and slice the meat into strips.
  4. 4. Serve the shawarma in a pita with veggies. I like to add hummus, tomato, and cucumber.

  • “Hey, amazing!”
I did not always feel beautiful on the inside or the outside. I had digestive issues that led to acne and a lot of old + damaging stories. You know those stories you tell yourself like: 
I am not smart enough. 
I am not perfect enough. 
I am not good enough. 
I learned health is not just about the food I consume – it’s also about the thoughts that I think. 
I would have a bloated belly if I were anxious. I would be tired after constant thinking that I was not enough. 
What happened you may ask? I let go.
I let go of the old stories and of foods that were inflaming my body,
My clients asked me to create a 24-hour simple detox. A simple reset for your body and mind. I do not promise you deep cleansing in 24 hours, but I can promise you a mini adult vacation. Sounds fabulous, right?

  • It’s just that kind of day. Ground beef with veggies and tomatoes paste, herbs and lots of pepper. Topped with mini hashbrowns. Baked at 375 for 25 mins. If you like it crunchy then broiled until crispy.  #

  • While I was in #sanfranciscolife I asked @yelp where to go for RAMEN! @menshotokyo It was right around the corner from my hotel #2 in all of San Fran. It is a tiny restaurant with long tables and stools. People stand on line for a long time just to get a bowl. I got on line at 4:20 for the 5pm opening. I was not the first or even the second ones there. By the time they opened the door there were 50+ people on line. It was 1000% worth the wait. I was lucky to be able to watch the kitchen as they prepped the meals and I am still thinking about that bowl of hot warm and silky broth. The light taste of the braised duck and with extra kale, it’s everything. Yum is not enough!!!!
