There seems to be some confusion among the reviewers of this recipe. This recipe is actually from a restaurant featured in Rachel Ray's $40 a day series. Guy's recipe is completely different. On his show, Guy says that his marinade consists of yogurt, onion, garlic, chili powder, and more. Unfortunately, I haven't found his recipe for chicken shawarma on this site yet.

You guys are incredible. Guy loved the food so much he's trying to share it with his audience and all you can say is the sauce was wrong, or he didnt cut the meat right? You guys have alot of courage blasting him behind anonymous screen names


This recipe is great and if I hadnt seen him make it I wouldve never had any version of Shawarma. Thank you for broadening my horizons yet again Guy

i love all these reviews of people giving reviews and HAVE NOT made the recipe. Guy didnt say he was making AUTHENTIC TRADITIONAL shawarma, he was making his make at home version. his version.

it looked good on the show, and im going to give it a try, i even liked his neat technique of using the disposable roasting pan. So since others did it , im going to rate the recipe a 5 even though i have yet to make it :

I have not made this yet, but by just reading the recipe, I can tell you that this is not real "shawerma". Real shawerma does not have curry powder in it. You could substitute cardamom powder and allspice for the curry powder and add some white vinegar for a more authentic taste. Also I recommend cutting the chicken into strips after grilling it. A small amount of yogurt could be added to the tahini sauce. The recipe does sound good...however, just not like a real shawerma.

The meat is fantastic. I just put it in pita bread, use store bught tzaziki, and chili or hot sauce. Line your pita with the tzaziki and hot sauce then throw in the meat...it is fantastic

The recipe is incomplete. Firstly, Lebanese hardly ever use curry in their food. Second, shawerma, whether chicken or meat, is usually sliced thinly so you can really bite the "sandwich". I recommend slicing the chicken and cooking it in an oven instead of a grill. Third, for chicken shawerma, Lebanes usually use a suace of paste made from garlic and oil. This, however, is not easy to make.

this recipe is not at all what shawarma really is. even the sauce is totally WRONG!!! i don't advise anyone to try it, you will be very disappointed especially if you have eaten really lebanese shawarma.

This dish was easy to make turned out to be less than I expected. I greatly increased the amount of garlic in the sauce which helped.
