Chicken shawarma is an Arabic street food snack that is prepared by grilling meat on a spit. it is most popular in many parts of the world and is served almost everywhere from restaurants to fast-food chain

Shawarma is mainly related to the Middle East. Where commercially. cooked marinated block of meat by wrapping it around the heated iron spit and boiling slowly while the spit rotates. grilled meat is shredded off from the spit when needed and served as an appetizer or used to make shawarma wraps or rolls

Whereas we people can’t do such type work or neither we have this equipment available at home.

So for it simply I took the way out is to first marinate chicken strips and then cook. as per my opinion, this method is healthier than the shawarma made on spits as they are grilled for long hours as long as for a day and usage heavy fats

I prepared this shawarma with homemade pita bread, homemade mayonnaise, jalapeno, and deliciously juicy chicken
