Trader Joe’s Chicken Shawarma with Lemon Rice Recipe

Trader Joe’s Chicken Shawarma + Lemon Rice Is a Thing To Behold

Do you guys know Naf Naf grill? This is a Naf Naf bowl, made at home! Using TJ’s chicken shawarma! Lots going on here!

This bowl is a power combo. It’s loaded with:

• Lemon rice (lightly scented, fluffy, and gorgeous)
• Crisped, golden chicken shawarma
• Cabbage slaw that’s almost pickled
• A tangy, creamy feta cucumber sauce

I am a huge fan of shortcuts cheesy smile so I am regularly using the chicken shawarma from Trader Joe’s for these bowls.

If you’re looking for the fastest possible path to a meal, just make the chicken and lemon rice, and pile on some store-bought tzatziki and/or fresh cucumbers! The chicken and lemon rice make such a solid base.

And if you’ve got it in you to make the cabbage and feta cucumbers, you’re in for a big big treat.

The first time I made this, I knew it would end up as a recipe on the blog. And then when I made it for a final test with my friend Amanda, we were just losing our minds. This combo is just SO GOOD.

Amanda actually pointed out that the leftovers would also be amazing in a wrap?! and now I can’t get that out of my mind. Can someone make that happen?

Hope you guys love it. Cheers to shortcuts! And feel-good food!

If you want to make the chicken shawarma from scratch – this is my go-to marinade for chicken breasts for recipes like this!
