What time of tomatoes are those? Grape? Cherry?

Shawarma Chicken and Rice Bowls Recipe
Ingredients:
For chicken & marinade:
- 1.5 lbs chicken breast (2-3 breasts)
- 1 Tbsp Balkan style plain yogurt (Greek is fine too)
- 1-2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1/2 tsp chili flakes
- Juice of 1/2 a lemon (about 1 Tbsp)
- Salt and pepper to taste
For rice:
- 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup basmati rice
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 knorr chicken bouillon cube
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1/4 cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
For white sauce (the best part!):
- 3 Tbsp Balkan style or Greek yogurt plain
- 3 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 clove minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp salt
Garnish with:
- Lettuce
- Tomato
- Fresh parsley
Pro tip: double the sauce recipe. It’s that good.
Instructions:
- Combine ingredients for the white sauce and place in the fridge for at least 30 mins before serving.
- Pound chicken to an even thickness (about 1/2 inch. Combine marinade ingredients and chicken in a medium sized bowl. Marinate chicken for 1 hr-12 hours. The longer the better!
- Wash rice with lukewarm water and drain, then fill bowl again and let rice soak for 15 mins.
- Pan fry chicken breasts on medium high heat for 2-3 mins on each side until seared— then cover and cook on low for 8-12 more mins or until chicken is fully cooked. Remove chicken from the pan, let it rest 5 mins and then cut into slices or cubes.
- While chicken is cooking, drain the rice. Add olive oil to a pot on high heat, add rice and reduce heat to medium high so it doesn’t burn.
- Add seasonings and water to rice and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low for 12 mins. Turn the heat off and keep rice covered for 5 more minutes.
- Fluff rice and serve chicken with fresh lettuce, tomatoes, parsley and the white sauce.
