Shish Tawook Chicken Recipe - Grilled Chicken Kabobs Wraps

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into cubes of about 2 inches each. The cubes shouldn't be too small otherwise they'll dry quickly on the grill.

Step 2

Place chicken cubes in a bowl, add all marinade ingredients and rub with hands until all ingredients assimilated well.

Step 3

Let marinate in a covered container in the fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Step 4

Skewer the chicken right before grilling.

Step 5

Grill on a BBQ on medium heat for 12-15 minutes maximum turning frequently. Overcooking can dry the chicken.

Step 6

Alternatively, you can lay the skewers on the edges of a deep Pyrex dish and bake in the oven at 400F for 15 mins.

Step 7

Once cooked, remove the chicken cubes and place in a pot while covering the lid tightly. Let rest for 5 minutes to help the chicken self-steam and turn juicier and softer.

Step 8

Spread 1 teaspoon of Lebanese garlic paste along the center/diameter of a pita bread.

Step 9

Add 4-5 chicken kabobs.

Step 10

Garnish with salted cucumber pickles, French fries, grilled tomatoes or peppers (optional)., Roll and enjoy. You could also toast the wrap roll through a panini grill for 2-3 minutes.
