STREET-CART-STYLE CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Combine boneless chicken thighs with lemon juice, chopped garlic, fresh oregano, coriander, turmeric and olive oil; marinate in the fridge for up to 4 hours.
• Grill the chicken (or cook it in a skillet), then chop it into chunks.
• Toss with a dressing made with equal parts mayonnaise and Greek yogurt, plus some lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley.

HALAL CART CHICKEN

Steps:

• Put the lemon juice, olive oil, paprika, cumin, coriander, allspice, turmeric, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the chicken and give it a good stir to make sure all the pieces are coated with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate, refrigerated, for at least 30 minutes and up to 6 hours.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the skillet. Spread the chicken in a single layer and cook, without stirring, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir the chicken, then continue to cook until the chicken is fully cooked, golden and caramelized on all sides, another 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Serve with yellow rice, white sauce, lettuce, tomatoes and pita.
