Recipe steps
Cut the chicken meat into very thin strips. Add mixed spices to taste, olive oil, and let it marinate in a cool place for one hour. Then take it out and leave it at room temperature for another half hour. Quickly sauté the chicken mixture while stirring constantly, and finally add salt.
Peel the mango, cut it into pieces, and cook it in a small amount of water. After it cools down, blend it with spices (you can also buy ready-made mango sauce in the store).
Mix tahini paste with cold water, salt, and lemon juice. After the first addition of water, the paste will thicken, and as we add more water, it will become thinner (about 6 tablespoons of water is sufficient). We shouldn't dilute it too much; it should have a somewhat paste-like consistency. More salt and lemon juice will be needed to make the paste tastier, and the exact amount depends on personal taste. Serve the shawarma in Arabic bread, which is further filled with vegetables, salads, and flavored with tahini and mango sauce.
