Shawarma-Spiced Chicken Paillard

with Arugula Shirazi Salad & Red Pepper Hummus

5 min
Difficulty: 1/3

This dish is a mash-up of culinary influences: You’ll season chicken with a spice blend inspired by Turkish shawarma, then pound the cutlets thin and pan-fry them—similar to French paillard. On the side, you’ll serve an Iranian-inspired shirazi salad of tomato, cucumber, and lemon, plus arugula for extra greens. The end result? Totally delicious.

Preparation
1
Prep

  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Zest and quarter lemon. Trim and finely dice cucumber. Dice tomato into ¼-inch pieces. Trim and thinly slice scallions. Roughly chop cilantro.

2
Season & Cook Chicken

  • Pat chicken* dry with paper towels; place between two large pieces of plastic wrap. Pound with a mallet or rolling pin until chicken is about ¼ inch thick. Season all over with half the garlic powder, half the Shawarma Spice Blend (all for 4 servings), salt, and pepper.

  • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side.

  • Turn off heat. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and tent with foil to keep warm.

 

3
Make Salad

  • In a large bowl, whisk together lemon zest, remaining garlic powder, 2 TBSP olive oil (4 TBSP for 4 servings), a squeeze of lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper.

  • Add arugula, cucumber, tomato, scallions, and cilantro to bowl; toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

4
Serve

  • Divide chicken between plates. Spread tops of chicken with hummus; top with salad and croutons. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
