Lebanese Street Sandwiches image

Arayes are grilled Lebanese-style sandwiches that are stuffed with a seasoned meat mixture. They're commonly found throughout the food stalls that line the streets of Beirut. If you'd rather not use a grill, they can be baked in the oven or made in a panini press. -Nikki Haddad, Germantown, Maryland

I followed the recipe exactly and the sandwiches turned out perfectly. The bread was soft and fluffy, the chicken was tender and juicy, and the tahini sauce was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making these sandwiches again.
