In our family, shawarma is one of our favorite snacks on a long road trip. Nourishing and tasty. I don’t make shawarma at home because I’m very bad at wrapping the filling in pita bread. But somehow I really wanted to spend the evening having dinner with shawarma and talking about past trips and future trips. I prepared the garlic sauce, took the available ingredients out of the refrigerator and handed them to my husband, asking him to make them beautifully. There were only cucumbers missing. I replaced the bell pepper with ground pepper. My husband decided to add grated carrots and lettuce to the filling. He also added hot capsicum to his shawarma. We don't have a grill pan, so we had to use a regular cast iron one. Shawarma with chicken in pita bread in a frying pan became a hearty and tasty dinner for our family. Thanks a lot!

Thank you for the recipe! I recently started making this homemade shawarma with chicken in pita bread in a frying pan. The ingredients I add are absolutely the same: chicken (fried, tomatoes, cucumbers, sometimes I add pepper. However, I don’t make the sauce myself, but buy calve sauce (usually thousand islands), it turns out very tasty. You can also make vegetarian shawarma)

Indeed, many men love shawarma with chicken in pita bread in a frying pan. I often make it with different fillings for my husband’s breakfast. I really like seeing his happy smile. As soon as I wrap it in an envelope, the filling doesn’t fall out in the pan. Good recipe.
