What is Chicken Shawarma Wrap?
A chicken shawarma wrap takes its cue from shawarma, a Levantine-style dish of seasoned chicken cooked on a rotating spit and sliced thinly. The meat is tucked into flatbread or a soft wrap, often with fresh vegetables, pickles and a garlicky or tahini-based sauce.
It is an easy handheld lunch or street-food meal in many places, including cities with large Middle Eastern communities. The savoury, warmly spiced chicken contrasts with crisp vegetables and soft bread; pickles add a sharp, tangy note. It provides protein, though the sauce and bread make it more substantial than a plate of chicken and salad. For a lighter version, ask for extra vegetables and have the sauce served on the side.
