Chicken Shawarma Rice Bowl
Sautéed chicken breast marinated in aromatic Middle Eastern spices served over fluffy basmati rice with a cooling, creamy garlic yogurt drizzle.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked basmati rice
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
0.5 cup diced cucumber
0.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp minced red onion
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove minced garlic
0.5 tsp ground cumin
0.5 tsp smoked paprika
0.25 tsp ground turmeric
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, half of the lemon juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and toss with the spice marinade until every piece is thoroughly coated.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken for 6-8 minutes until the edges are golden and crisp.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the sauce by mixing the Greek yogurt with the remaining lemon juice and a tiny pinch of sea salt.
Place the warm cooked basmati rice in a serving bowl and layer with the spiced chicken, diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
Finish the dish by drizzling the creamy yogurt sauce over the top for a bright and balanced meal.
