    Instructions

    1
    |
    In a bowl, mix chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, curry, MSG, tomato paste, yogurt, and olive oil. Stir well until everything is evenly coated.
    2
    |
    Preheat oven to 220°C (top/bottom heat). Lightly oil a baking sheet and spread the chicken pieces on top. Bake for 15–18 minutes until cooked and lightly crisp on the edges.

    |
    Mix Greek yogurt with grated garlic, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, water, tomato paste, ketchup, salt, and pepper. This will be used to brush the wraps, not for frying.

    |
    Lay your wrap flat and brush the INSIDE with the tomato oil mixture. Add the baked chicken, quick toum, and pickle slices. Roll the shawarma tightly.

    Heat a pan over medium heat with oil. Add the shawarmas and toast them slowly until the outside becomes deeply crispy. This step takes a bit longer, but that’s exactly how they get ultra-crunchy.
