Útmutatók

Trim bread to fit 30cm/12” non-stick pan. Mix chicken spread ingredients, spread on bread like you would peanut butter!

Heat oil over high heat, place in pan meat side down. Cook 90 sec until there’s some golden spots (no longer, chicken dries out), use tongs to flip, cook other side 90 sec until crispy (lower heat slightly and cook a bit longer if needed).

Slide onto cutting board, finish with toppings, cut into 8, eat like pizza!

Thin Greek souvlaki bread or other flatbreads about 2 – 3mm thick ideal. Not bready ones (like bready pita). Tortillas – cook like quesadillas – spread meat on half, sprinkle with toppings, fold, pan fry. Could also do taco size.

Homemade Baharat: 1 tsp EACH ground all spice, cinnamon, 3/4 tsp coriander, 1/2 tsp pepper, 1/4 tsp cumin, 1/8 tsp each cloves, nutmeg.
