Chicken Shawarmas image

These taste exactly like the ones we used to get at the shawarma stand when I was stationed at Kuwaiti Naval Base, just outside Kuwait City. Give 'em a try, you won't be sorry!

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 clove garlic, minced
½ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into bite-size pieces
1 ½ teaspoons garam masala
4 pita bread rounds
4 dill pickle spears

Steps:

  • Stir together the garlic and mayonnaise in a small bowl; set aside. Heat the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the chicken in the hot butter until white on the outside. Sprinkle with garam masala, and continue cooking until lightly browned on the outside and no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes.
  • Spread the pita rounds with the garlic mayonnaise. Divide the chicken among the pitas, and place a pickle spear into each. Fold and serve.
