Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lbs chicken breasts
1 lemon, Juiced (keep the rind)
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 garlic cloves
3 tablespoons yoghurt
1 teaspoon tomato paste

2 teaspoons ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2-1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken breasts, into long, slim strips, then into lengths that are about an inch long.
  • Put them into a bowl, and allow them to marinate in the lemon juice and rind, olive oil, crushed and diced garlic, yoghurt, tomato paste, salt, pepper and spices.
  • Allow 24 hours for the flavors to develop. [ i know it seems like a long wait, but it'll be worth it].
  • The following day, remove and drain the chicken pieces from the marinade, and saute them for 10 minutes.
  • Serve hot as a mezze or for sandwiches along with thinly sliced onions, deseeded tomato, pickles, and fresh baked pita.
