Ingredients

• 1000 grams Boneless lamb or chicken breast
• 250 ml Plain yogurt (gluten-free)
• 60 ml Olive oil
• 30 ml Lemon juice
• 4 units Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
• 2 teaspoons Ground coriander
• 2 teaspoons Paprika
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
• 6 units Gluten-free flatbreads
• 30 grams Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 unit Red onion, thinly sliced
• 3 units Tomatoes, sliced
• 1 unit Cucumber, sliced
• 120 ml Tahini sauce (gluten-free)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the marinade: In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, black pepper, turmeric, and cayenne pepper.

Step 2

Cut the lamb or chicken breast into thin slices, about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 3

Add the meat slices to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for a more intense flavor.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).

Step 5

Thread the marinated meat onto skewers. You can use a lined baking tray underneath to catch any juices during cooking.

Step 6

Place the skewers in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, rotating halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 7

Increase the oven heat to 220°C (430°F) for the last 10-15 minutes of cooking to develop a nice char on the edges.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the meat from the skewers and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.

Step 9

Warm the gluten-free flatbreads slightly in the oven or on a skillet.

Step 10

Assemble the kebabs: Place slices of meat on the flatbread and top with fresh parsley, sliced red onion, tomatoes, cucumber, and a drizzle of gluten-free tahini sauce.

Step 11

Fold the flatbread or serve open-faced, and enjoy this delicious gluten-free doner kebab!
