Step 1

In a large bowl mix together all the ingredients for the Chicken Shawarma, except the chicken fillets and the fresh coriander.

Step 2

Place the chicken in the marinade and turn to coat evenly – cover the bowl with clingfilm and marinate in the fridge for 1 to 2 hours, if you have the time (if not then just carry on with the next step)

Step 3

When you are ready to cook, preheat your oven to 220C / 200C / gas mark 7 / 425F and place the chicken on a baking tray, taking care to spread it out in a single layer.

Step 4

When the oven is hot, place the chicken in the oven and cook for 20 minutes or until cooked all the way through and starting to brown on top.

Step 5

Remove from the oven and shred the chicken, using 2 forks. Turn the shredded chicken in the pan juices then place on a serving plate. Drizzle over any remaining pan juices and then garnish with fresh coriander.

Step 6

You can either make this sauce ahead of time, or make it about 5 minutes before the chicken is due to come out of the oven.

Step 7

Simply mix together all the ingredients and serve! Garnish with mint, if you like.
