Instructions

  • Prepare all ingredients as listed above.
  • Bring water to a boil. Place bulgur in a bowl, pour the boiling water over it, cover, and let sit for about 10 minutes until tender. Fluff with a fork and allow to cool.
  • Add parsley, mint, tomato, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the cooled bulgur. Toss well to combine and set aside so the flavors can meld.
  • In a bowl, mix garlic, coriander, cumin, cardamom, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil to make the shawarma marinade.
  • Add chicken to the marinade and toss until evenly coated.
  • Blend garlic, olive oil, yogurt, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice until smooth. Set aside.
  • Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken until grill-marked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove the chicken from the grill, allow it to rest for about 5 minutes, then slice into strips.
  • Lay out the tortillas and portion lettuce, cucumber, tomato, red onion, sliced chicken, and pickles onto each wrap. Drizzle with sauce. Fold in the ends and roll up.
  • Bring water to a boil, remove from heat, add chamomile tea bags, and steep for about 5 minutes.
  • Serve the shawarma wrap with tabbouleh, chamomile tea, and dates for dessert.
