Instructions

Pita

  • Preheat oven to 500°F / 260°C.1. In a bowl, add flour, yeast, brown sugar and salt. Mix.
  • Make a well in the middle of the flour and add warm water and oil. Mix until all the ingredients are combined well.
  • Use your hands to form the dough and knead for 5 minutes.
  • Place the dough in a clean bowl and cover in plastic wrap or a towel.   Leave to rise in a warm area for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  • Separate dough into 8 equal pieces and form each piece into a ball.  Flatten out with a rolling pin into a circle. Place on a sheet pan in hot oven.  Bake for 5-7 mins (until lightly golden).

Jerusalem Grill Seasoning

  • In a jar or bowl, mix together the cinnamon, turmeric, cardamom, paprika, black pepper, ground cloves, ground chili powder, ground coriander, curry powder, minced garlic, sumac and kosher salt.  

Mixed Grill

  • Add olive oil to a frying pan on medium heat.  Add 1 tablespoon of the pre-mixed spices and stir.  Add onion, chicken hearts and chicken thighs and stir. Make sure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, which will take about 10 minutes.
  • Add the koshered chicken livers and cook for a few more minutes, until hot. (Koshered chicken livers are pre-cooked).  
  • Slice off the top of the pita and open the pocket.  Spread a spoonful of tahini inside followed by plenty of mixed grill and topped with parsley. Enjoy.
