WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
DAVE BREEN: "These recipes have been stupendous! I started with the free trial and have not been disappointed. They are quick, easy, and delicious. I was tired of trying to figure out what to fix each night and this has solved the issue for me. Beats fast food and eating out hands down!"

TAYLOR JOHNSON: "Jake's recipes have absolutely changed my life as the cook in the household. I've been making his recipes for roughly a year and have yet to find one that my picky children don't like. My families favorite recipe is the butternut squash mac 'n' cheese. His recipes are a staple in my meal prepping in my house and I couldn't be more satisfied."

A delicious and authentic chicken shawarma recipe with homemade French fries and tzatziki sauce. If you've had a chicken shawarma before, you get it. If you haven't then here's your chance to not miss out on the glory that is the shawarma!

Authentic Chicken Shawarma

Make the marinade as early as possible. Mix chicken thighs into the marinade, cover, and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Grate your cucumbers for the sauce. Place them into paper towel and squeeze out the water. Mix all ingredients together and place into the fridge until assembly.

Run your potatoes through a mandolin for a shoestring size or use a knife to cut them into 1/4 inch by 1/4 inch sticks. Place them into ice cold water and let them soak for 30 mins. Strain and rinse. Place a few sheets of paper towel on the bottom of the bowl and put fries back in bowl to dry.

In a large pan, begin frying your chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side over medium heat. Remove when fully cooked (165°).

Heat oil in a sauce pan to medium heat. I use olive oil. Yes…you absolutely can fry in olive oil! Fry potatoes in batches and remove to paper towel when golden brown.

Begin assembly—flatbread, sauce, fries, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, chicken, more sauce. Fold over itself, wrap with foil, serve and enjoy!
