De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

1
In a large bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, turmeric powder, cayenne pepper (if using), black pepper, and salt.
Ongeveer 2 min
2
Add the sliced chicken thighs to the marinade and toss to ensure all pieces are well coated.
Ongeveer 1 min
3
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
Ongeveer 2 uur
Tip van de kok: Marinating longer will result in more tender and flavorful chicken.
4
Heat the cooking olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: Ensure the pan is hot before adding the chicken to get a good sear.
5
Add the marinated chicken to the hot pan in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. You may need to cook the chicken in batches.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: Overcrowding the pan will steam the chicken instead of browning it.
6
Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it is deeply browned and cooked through.
Ongeveer 10 min
7
Remove the cooked chicken from the pan and set aside.
Ongeveer 1 min
8
Warm the pita bread according to package instructions, typically in a dry pan or microwave.
