Chicken Sausage Shawarma with Pomegranate Tabbouleh

Chicken Sausage Shawarma with Pomegranate Tabbouleh

Posted 2014-11-24 by GiGi GMV follow
This is GMV's Lebanese inspired shawarma recipe. Shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern 'sandwiching' meat or poultry served on pitas.



The original version used in Lebanese shawarma is slow cooked meat on rotisserie, but I've decided to use gourmet chicken sausages instead. It is topped with generous tabbouleh & pomegranate salad and lavishly spread with hommus all wrapped in between wholemeal pita bread.

No one can resist this gorgeous delicious meal filled with GMV's 'tweaks' :)



The result? Absolutely fantastic and the taste is sensational. They will be a hit at our next BBQ party.
