Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees (if using the oven). Slice potatoes into fries then wash and pat them dry with kitchen roll or a tea towel. Drizzle with oil, season with garlic powder and plenty of salt and pepper then place on a baking tray and pop in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove the tray half way through, squeeze half a lemon or add 2 tablespoons of bottled lemon juice over them and turn fries over. Alternatively you cook these fries in an airfryer on 200 degrees for 20 minutes, shaking and adding lemon juice half way through too.
  2. Meanwhile, add chicken to a bowl with the shawarma seasonings and lemon juice. Mix well then stack the chicken and place into foil and wrap up tightly into a parcel. Place the parcel into the oven and bake for 30 minutes or into the airfryer and airfry for 20 minutes on 200 degrees.
  3. Make the garlic sauce whilst the fries and chicken are both cooking by placing all ingredients in a small bowl and mixing together until smooth then chop up the cucumber, tomatoes, parsley and onion. Add the salad to a separate bowl and mix together with a splash of oil and season with salt and pepper
  4. When the fries are done, divide them into bowls. Remove the chicken from the foil and slice it up shawarma style. Layer the chicken on top then add salad on top and drizzle garlic sauce all over. Finish with hot sauce and more parsley.
