If you are running out of time to prepare dinner, the easy option which comes to mind is to grab some take away. After all who doesn't like some fastfood like kebab, pitta, shawarma or however you want to call it.
Preparing shawarma however is so easy, that it would be a waste of money to buy it ready made. The additional advantage of home made food is moreover that you know at least what you put into it. In these times where it appears that horsemeat has been passing for beef in numerous industrially prepared dishes, it takes an ever bigger importance.
Making this dish is so easy that you can hardly call it a recipe, but here you go. I have had and used it for quite some time and I think it came originally from a Weight Watchers website, so to top all the other advantages, it is also a skinny dish :o)
Ingredients for 2 servings :
* 1 box of mushrooms
* 1 red bell pepper
* shredded iceberg lettuce (I also added some raw white cabbage)
* 2 onions
* 260g chicken fillet
* 1 tsp olive oil
* 1 Tbs of shawarma spices
* 2 pitta breads
* aioli
Preparation :
Fry meat and veggies in a teaspoon of olive oil. Add the bell pepper a bit later on, so that it keeps a bit of crunch (and isn't all mushy).
Heat up the pita breads in a toaster. If you like to eat it as a sandwich, fill the warm bread with lettuce and the shawarma and serve with some aioli. Otherwise you can serve all the ingredients separetely on a plate. The aioli can be homemade, but we always have a storebought jar in the fridge, so that's what I used.
That's all there is to it, quick simple and very tasty.
