Instructions
-
Marinate the chicken:
In a bowl, combine sliced chicken with olive oil, cumin, paprika, turmeric, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes to absorb the bold flavors.
-
Cook the chicken:
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and lightly browned.
-
Prepare the spicy yogurt sauce:
In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lemon juice, chopped parsley, D’Bocas Hot Sauce, and salt until smooth and creamy.
-
Serve:
Serve the chicken warm in pita bread or over rice bowls. Drizzle generously with the spicy D’Bocas yogurt sauce. Add fresh veggies like cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions for extra crunch and freshness.
💡 D’Bocas Tip:
To infuse even more flavor and aroma, sprinkle sumac or smoked paprika over the chicken before serving. The distinctive spicy twist of D’Bocas Hot Sauce beautifully enhances these classic spices.
