Shawarma Chicken

This marinade is a great way to add flavor without too many calories! It can be grilled outside in the summer or broiled inside for the winter. If this is for a weeknight meal you can make the marinade up to 3 days in advance. 

Ingredients:

4 Chicken Breasts or Thighs 

Marinade:
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tbsp. curry powder
2 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
4 tbsp. lemon juice
6 tbsp. olive oil


Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients of the marinade in a small jar and shake to combine. 

2. Add chicken pieces to a plastic bag. Add marinade to bag with chicken. Toss chicken around in the marinade and place in the fridge for 1-3 hours. 

3. When ready to serve preheat a grill to 400 degrees. Grill chicken over medium high heat until internal temperature reaches 155. Remove from grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes. 

4. Slice chicken and serve with your side of choice. I recommend my Greek quinoa or pitas with my Tzatziki Sauce.
