I was diagnosed with cancer a couple of months ago and underwent surgery. My Oncologist wants me to change my eating habits and suggested Mediterranean foods which is food that I love but don’t have a ton of experience cooking it. This Shawarma looks amazing and will be my first dish to cook. I am excited to learn more. Thank you, ❤️

Never realized how easy it was to make some chicken schwarma right in a skillet! I made this and served it with a traditional pita pocket & tahini dressing... SO DELICIOUS!!! Thank you for your simple and incredibly wonderful recipes!! ❤️

“This is how I shawarma, y’all” - is amazing phrase for some t-shirt or another merch ❤

I didn't know you had a YT channel. I've been using several of your recipes for 2 years now, and I'm eternally grateful. My husband had to go on a low fat diet a couple years ago, and the doctor specifically recommended the Mediterranean diet. Your recipes are a God-send. We love the food anyway, but now I make it in my own home. I check in with your website regularly for new recipes and inspiration. Thanks for all you do!

Love your channel, been watching it for about a year maybe. I just received the big spice package and some barley and sun dried tomato. I made this dish tonight for us and the neighbors and it was amazing! Thank you for expanding our culinary knowledge 🔥👨🏼‍🍳🔥

Omg! My best friend from Pakistan will be impressed When I make her this dish! We order it for lunch sometimes at work but there's nothing like homemade I always tell her about any food.

We all know why Max likes to hang out in the kitchen - he wants a bite of chicken! 😊

[lindairvine]

I make this but with cinnamon instead of cloves, I bet this is good though, I’ll have to give it a try, I’m subscribed to your emails and use your recipes all the time, this is the first time I’ve see you cook though, thank you ☺️

I made this with your chickpea salad, it was delicious! 😋👌🏻❤
