    Avoid the oven! If the outside is hot, eat out of the pot! As usual, this recipe looks so good!! If you "I Spy with My Eye" a goof, let me know. Recipe follows:
    Instant Pot Chicken Shawarma – Flo Lum

    MARINADE
    Place into a gal size Zip-Loc bag:
    2 lemons juiced (for 1/4 c lemon juice)
    4 cloves garlic – crushed or pressed
    2 t paprika
    2 t cumin
    1/2 t turmeric
    pinch of cinnamon
    pinch of crushed chili flakes
    1 t salt
    ground pepper to taste
    1/2 c olive oil

    Mix. Add 3-4 lbs. of chicken skinless thighs and mix to coat.
    Place in fridge for a couple of hours.

    Into Instant Pot:
    1 onion quartered and entire contents from marinade bag
    Cover with lid . Press Manual for 8 min.

    HUMMUS
    Into a small sauce pot:
    1 can chickpeas with liquid
    3 cloves garlic

    Heat to a boil then simmer for 5 min.

    Place pot contents into a food processor and add:
    2 T lemon juice (about 1/2 a lemon)
    1/2 c tahini (sesame paste)
    3/4 t salt

    Turn on to Blend.
    Drizzle in 2 T olive oil while blending till creamy

    Place hummus into a bowl. (The longer it can sit, the more flavors blend.)
    Can drizzle small amount of olive oil on top.
    Pinch of paprika

    WHITE SAUCE
    Into a bowl:
    1/4 c tahini
    2-3 T water
    1 clove garlic pressed (can add more)
    1 1/2 T lemon juice
    2 pinches salt

    Mix well

    When IP is done, you can place chicken on a sheet pan under broiler, put on grill,
    or pan fry for short time….or just eat out of pot.

    Plate, drizzle with white sauce, and top with some chopped parsley with a
    side of hummus.

    Have you ever added any veggies (roasted) tour hummus? Roasted red peppers or roasted carrots are both relish. I am definitely going to cook my chickpeas first next time l make it, maybe tomorrow as l am anxious to try it your way. I love your videos & l just found you tonight. I have the IP but haven't used it a lot because l just don't know what l'm doing. Glad l found you. Your videos are the best l have found & l feel more confident now, so thanks for the inspiration.
