Briefly pulse in the yogurt to help thicken the sauce. If you blend the yogurt too much it will just thin out again.4Step 4: Heat a little butter or olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Toast the pitas until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side.5Step 5: Spoon a generous helping of garlic sauce down the middle of each pita, top with a pickle slice, and add chicken. Pull up both sides and wrap parchment paper around, twisting the excess on the bottom, to keep the sandwich in place and serve warm.getsaucepan.com/r/e12ba95e-40a2-4516-bb53-a7a2a7c6fc97 · Original: https://www.100daysofrealfood.com/chicken-shawarma-sandwich-garlic-sauce/
