Ingredients

  • 1 pound skinless boneless chicken thighs
  •  cup canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Slice chicken into thin strips. Combine the oil and spices and mix into chicken. You can marinate the chicken overnight in the fridge to intensify the flavor. 
  • Heat a frying pan on medium/high heat and place spiced chicken strips in pan. Cook in pan for about sixteen minutes - about eight minutes per side. Make sure chicken gets a nice crunchy exterior. Remove from pan and leave as is or chop chicken into even smaller pieces. 
  • Serve with chopped fresh vegetables, hummus and hot peppers in a pita or laffa.
