Ingredients

  • 800 grams Chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
  • 200 grams Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 3 Garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 teaspoons Ground coriander
  • 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional for heat)
  • 1.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 4 Flatbreads or pita
  • 2 cups Lettuce (shredded)
  • 2 Tomatoes (sliced)
  • 1 Red onion (thinly sliced)
  • 0 (to serve) Garlic sauce or tzatziki

Directions

Step 1

Place the boneless chicken thighs in a large bowl.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, prepare the marinade by combining Greek yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, ground coriander, cumin, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, red chili flakes (if using), salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.

Step 3

Pour the marinade over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for best results.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).

Step 5

Stack the marinated chicken thighs on a skewer (if available) or arrange them in a single layer on a baking tray lined with foil. If using a skewer, place it horizontally on the edges of a baking dish so that the chicken is suspended.

Step 6

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, turning halfway through, until the meat is fully cooked and slightly charred on the edges.

Step 7

Once cooked, allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes, then slice it into thin strips using a sharp knife.

Step 8

Warm the flatbreads or pita by lightly toasting them in a skillet or oven.

Step 9

Assemble the doner kebab by placing a generous portion of sliced chicken on the flatbread. Top with shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, red onion, and a drizzle of garlic sauce or tzatziki.

Step 10

Wrap the flatbread around the filling and serve immediately. Enjoy your homemade chicken doner kebab!
