Easy shawarma chicken wraps




Street food meets simple meal in these loaded shawarma wraps. Belazu’s Shawarma Paste brings bold Middle Eastern flavour to pan-fried chicken breasts, which are brightened with a squeeze of lemon. Tangy pickled onions and a dollop of yoghurt add contrast, and everything is wrapped in toasty, seed-speckled wraps. Scatter with fresh coriander for a satisfying bite that's both fresh and fragrant.
Ingredients
Method
- 4 Woolworths Free Range Chicken Breasts, butterflied and flattened
- 130 g Belazu Shawarma Paste
- 1 T Fresh lemon juice
- 1 T Woolworths Mediterranean Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 4 Woolworths Multiseed Wraps, toasted
- 90 g Woolworths Pickled Red Onion Petals, drained

Method
Ingredients
1. Rub the chicken with Belazu Shawarma Paste, olive oil and lemon juice. Season with salt and black pepper.
2. Heat a pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
3. Warm the wraps briefly in a dry pan or oven.
4. To assemble, layer chicken slices, pickled onion, a spoon of yoghurt and a few coriander leaves onto each wrap.
Cook’s note: These also work brilliantly in a lunchbox or picnic setting – just keep the yoghurt separate until serving.
