Step 3
Cover the bowl and let it marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Step 4
Preheat pan and add the vegetable oil (or any oil that you have).
Step 5
Add the chicken and let it cook for around 10 minutes until the chicken browns. (note: it may take slightly longer than 10 minutes for the colour of the chicken to change).
Step 6
After the chicken shwarma is cooked, use a pita bread and add the chicken shwarma mixture and Chilli sauce/garlic sauce/ Chill mayo/ plain mayo. Serve it alongside fresh salad.
