Chicken Shawarma Rice Bowl
Tender chicken breast marinated in aromatic Middle Eastern spices, pan-seared until golden and served over fluffy basmati rice with a creamy lemon-tahini drizzle.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked basmati rice
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 cup diced cucumber
0.25 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp thinly sliced red onion
0.5 tsp cumin
0.5 tsp smoked paprika
0.25 tsp turmeric
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and place in a small mixing bowl.
Toss the chicken with olive oil, cumin, smoked paprika, turmeric, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper until every piece is evenly coated.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
In a small ramekin, whisk together the tahini and half of the lemon juice with a tiny splash of water to create a smooth, pourable sauce.
Prepare a quick salad by tossing the diced cucumber, halved tomatoes, and sliced red onion with the remaining lemon juice.
Assemble the bowl by placing the warm cooked rice at the base, then topping with the spiced chicken and the fresh vegetable salad.
Drizzle the creamy tahini sauce over the entire bowl and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
