Tender Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken Shawarma
Oven-roasted chicken breast marinated in zesty lemon and warm spices, served with a cooling yogurt sauce and crisp cucumber salad for a vibrant, aromatic finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp ground cumin
0.5 tsp ground coriander
0.25 tsp ground turmeric
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the chicken breast into thin, even strips to ensure quick and uniform cooking.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, turmeric, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken strips to the bowl and toss thoroughly until every piece is well coated in the aromatic marinade.
Spread the chicken in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 15-18 minutes until cooked through and slightly golden.
While the chicken roasts, dice the cucumber and halve the cherry tomatoes, then toss them with the fresh parsley.
Plate the roasted chicken alongside the fresh vegetable salad and finish with a dollop of Greek yogurt for a creamy contrast.
