Ingredients

  • ¼ cup ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup ground allspice
  • ¼ cup garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons ground cloves
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons ground cardamom
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon salt

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients in a bowl or ziplock bag. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
  • To marinate the shawarma meat: you'll need 2 tablespoons olive oil + 1 tablespoon white vinegar + ½ teaspoon salt. Allow chicken to marinate for 10-20 minutes and 1 hour to 24 hours for beef. Here's a recipe for my beef shawarma bowls and beef shawarma wraps.

Notes

  • This makes enough to season about 21 pounds of meat. Use about 1 tablespoon of seasoning per pound of chicken or beef. The batch can even be made larger by simply doubling or tripling the recipe. You can also halve the recipe for a smaller batch.
