TOOLS

1. A bowl

2. A spoon

3. A plate

4. A spatula

5. A pan

STEPS

1.  First we start cutting the chicken thigh boneless in four or five chunks.

2. Then, place the chicken in a zip freezer bag. 

3. Later, we put in a bowl all the spices and the salt. We put over the chicken and we close the bag. 

4. When we do this we massage the bag and we put it in the fridge for more than two hours.

5. Preheat the oven 200ºC and cover a tray with aluminum foil.

6.  Lightly grease with oil and add the chicken, separating the pieces into a single layer.

7. Roast for 15-20 minutes, turning the pieces halfway through.

8. Let stand a little out of the oven and cut into fine pieces using a good knife. Put a nonstick skillet or grill on the heat, with a pinch of oil, and sauté the meat over medium-high heat for about 5-8 minutes, until the small pieces are very crisp. 

9. Prepare the sauce by beating the yogurt with the lemon juice, the parsley or coriander, the minced garlic clove, a little oil and salt and pepper. Spread the pita bread or tortillas with a little sauce and add chicken, lettuce, onion and tomato to taste.
