Shawarma Chicken Skillet with Vegetables

The essential ingredients to make the food as special as possible are: pomegranate molasses, pepper paste (sweet or spicy) and the mixture of 7 oriental spices. You can find them all at Arabic shops, they are not expensive and along the way you will use them in other recipes.

But, being in the country, I didn't have the opportunity to do it with them and I improvised a bit, it turned out just as good - of course not perfect, but still delicious. So I used tomato sauce, or ketchup (I put pomegranate sauce and pepper paste instead) and I found a mixture of Indian chicken in the store there.

Ingredients

Chicken breast
1 kg
or veal
White onion
1 piece
Red peppers
1 piece
Pomegranate molasses

Sunflower oil
100 ml

Baharat - arabic 7 spice mix
1 tsp

Step by step

Step 1

Cut the fillets into thin slices as wide as possible.
