Add the chicken and fry 8–10 minutes in two batches, in a scorching pan, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through.

💡Sear in batches in a scorching pan: a crowded pan cools down, and the chicken steams instead of browning.
💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
5
Thinly slice the red onion and tomatoes.

Heat a dry pan over medium heat, and warm the pita in it.
StoveFrying pan
7
Mix the tahini and lemon juice and season with salt.
8
Gradually add cold water while stirring, until the sauce is smooth, pale and pourable.
💡When you add the first water, the tahini thickens and looks like dough: that's fine. Keep adding water and stirring, and it loosens into a smooth sauce.

Spread in the pita the tahini, arrange in it the shawarma and the tomatoes and red onion, roll up and serve immediately.
