First of all, we're going to make the shawarma herb mix by combining all the ingredients for the herb mix in a mortar and mixing them well. If you don't have a jack, this can also be done in a bowl with a spoon.
Then we remove the chicken thigh fillet from the package and pat it dry. We then cut these into nice little cubes so we can string them to the skewers. Once we have done this, we mix the boneless chicken thighs with 1 tablespoon of the homemade shorma herb mix and a splash of olive oil. Now we mix the whole well and put it in the fridge to marinate. At least 1 hour and at best 3-4 hours.
We now make the garlic sauce by mixing 5 tablespoons of Greek yogurt with 3 tablespoons mayonnaise. We then squeeze the garlic with the garlic press and cut the fresh parsley very finely and add this. Continue to taste with pepper and salt and finish top with some fresh parsley for the looks! The eye wants something, of course.
Now we cut the half red onion, we cut the cucumber into sections of 4 and the cherry tomatoes in 4s. We pour a splash of olive oil over this and bring it to taste with salt and pepper. Your salad is ready now and can go into the cooler.
We then cut the other half of the red onion into quarters so that we can use it between the chicken pieces on the skewers. So we start with a piece of chicken, then a piece of red onion, chicken, red onion and so on. Until your skewers are filled to your liking.
We then light the barbecue and go for half an indirect setting so that we can grill the chicken nicely above the open fire and grab the skewers a little bit. We're taking our barbecue for a dome temperature of 200 degrees Celsius. Grill the skewers around to an internal temperature of at least 74 degrees Celsius or until you think they're ready if you don't have a thermometer available. When the chickenshoarma skewers are almost ready you put on the sandwiches, on the indirect part and close the lid. They will be ready in a few minutes.
Internal temperature: 74°COnce everything is finished, you can be served with the sandwiches, salad and homemade garlic sauce. Now the enjoyment is blown! Enjoy your meal!
