Crispy Lemon-Herb Chicken Shawarma Bowls
Tender chicken breast pan-seared with aromatic shawarma spices and served over fluffy quinoa with a zesty, cooling yogurt drizzle.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.5 cup chopped cucumber
0.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp minced red onion
2 tbsp plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 whole garlic clove
0.5 tsp ground cumin
0.25 tsp ground coriander
0.25 tsp smoked paprika
0.13 tsp ground turmeric
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into thin, bite-sized strips and place them in a small mixing bowl.
Toss the chicken with the ground cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, turmeric, sea salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and sear for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until the edges are crispy and the meat is cooked through.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the sauce by whisking together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small ramekin.
Assemble the bowl by placing the warm cooked quinoa at the bottom and topping it with the seared chicken, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
Drizzle the lemon-garlic yogurt sauce over the bowl and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
