Ingrediencie

2 ¼ lbs to 2 ½ lbs chicken thighs (boneless and skinless, or skin on- see notes) leave whole or cut into bite-sized pieces for skewers.

2 tablespoons ground cumin

2 tablespoons ground coriander

6- 8 garlic cloves, finely minced

2 teaspoons kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 teaspoons turmeric

1 teaspoon ground ginger

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 teaspoon allspice

6 tablespoons olive oil

Postup

Soak skewers in water if using.

Place all marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix, or pulse in a food processor to make a paste.

Rub the chicken on all sides with the marinade and let it sit for at least 20 minutes (or up to 24-48 hours for the best flavor, refrigerated). You can also cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and marinate for skewers.

Grill chicken on a preheated grill over medium-high heat, closing the BBQ lid, until all sides have nice grill marks, about 8 minutes per side.

Move to a cooler part of the grill or finish cooking chicken in a 350 F oven until cooked all the way through ( 175F) , about 10-15 minutes. *Alternatively, you can bake the chicken thighs in a 375 F oven for 30-40 minutes or use a grill pan on the stovetop.

Taste and adjust salt to taste. Enjoy the chicken shawarma over Israeli salad, tabouli, Lebanese Slaw, or with Middle Eastern rice and veggies, or as a sandwich with tahini yogurt, tzatziki, pita bread, tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion.
