    Instant Pot Chicken Shawarma Pinterest pin - shawarma on pita with white sauce and topped with tomatoes and parsley - Paint the Kitchen Red

    Instant Pot Chicken Shawarma is a quick and easy homemade pressure cooker version of shawarma that’s healthy, requires very little hands-on time and delivers a delicious punch of bold flavor.   Make a chicken shawarma wrap with pita bread or make a shawarma rice bowl.  Serve with hummus, garlic sauce, tahini sauce or hot sauce, and pickles, lettuce, tomatoes , onions, french fries.

    Instant Pot Chicken Shawarma - pita with white sauce, chicken, salad greens, halved cherry yellow and red tomatoes on parchment placed on a large white plate with French fries and white sauce and folded shawarmaI’m a huge fans of gyros and shawarmas. Both are street food sandwiches made out of succulent meat wrapped in flatbread or pita and both have a common ancestor: the doner kebab which is a Turkish street food, created during Ottoman times.  But there are some important differences between shawarma and gyro.

     

    Gyro (pronounced ‘yee-roh’) originated in Greece. Gyros are generally made from pork, lamb, and/or beef and are served with a cucumber yogurt sauce called Tzatziki (pronounced ‘zat-zee-kee’). Gyro meat is usually flavored with mediterranean spices like oregano, rosemary, thyme and marjoram.

     

    Shawarma (pronounced ‘shwaar-maa’)  has its origins as a Middle Eastern / Arabic street food and is made from chicken, lamb, or beef. It’s served with a tahini sauce (made from sesame seeds) or garlic sauce.  Shawarma meat has very different spices from gyro meat – it’s flavored with spices like cardamom, cinnamon, clove, and coriander.

     

    This delicious chicken shawarma pressure cooker recipe is adapted from a stovetop shawarma recipe I’ve been making for many years.  I have family living in the Middle East and was introduced to Arabic food during my visits there.

     

    I feel that my recipe is healthier than what you’d get at a shawarma fast food place because when you make chicken shawarma at home, you don’t get that fat dripping back into the rotisserie meat like you do from a takeout place.

     

    I like to eat Instant Pot chicken shawarma with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and/or onions.  Often times I make this Mediterranean Salad that I like to serve on the side or to fill the shawarma with, instead of lettuce and tomatoes.

     

    The garlic sauce / white sauce recipe that I’ve included in the recipe card is my own concoction that I just kinda made up! I serve it with all kinds of foods including Mexican fish tacos or carnitas.

     

    My kids like to add french fries into the shawarma wrap like some of the street-food doner kebabs we ate during a visit to Istanbul.  It’s actually quite good!  You could substitute sweet potato fries to make it healthier.

     

    Instant Pot Shawarma can also be served with accompaniments like pickled cucumbers, hummus, and tabbouleh or fatoush (Middle Eastern salads).

     

    Another way of eating the chicken shawarma is as part of a shawarma rice bowl, arranging the toppings side by side.  You might like to try using my recipe for Instant Pot rice.  If you use the Pot-in-Pot method, you could make both chicken shawarma and rice at the same time.

     

    And here’s a tidbit of trivia for you if you’re a fan of Mexican food: Tacos al Pastor was introduced by Lebanese immigrants to Mexico and is an adaptation of shawarma!  It always fascinates me how the foods of the world are so inter-related.

    Tips

    • Although the recipe states that you can marinate the chicken 2 hours to overnight, I’ve made this without any marination ahead of time and the flavor is still amazing.

    • If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you probably know that I prefer to use chicken thighs in general and especially in the pressure cooker.  The flavor is much superior to chicken breasts, which dry out.

    • I like to quickly saute the chicken in a frying pan or cast iron skillet but you don’t need to do that; you can just remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and allow to drain well before placing directly in your pita or flatbread.

    • I mix up a larger batch of the dry spices and store them in a bottle in a cool dry place, and that way I can save time if I want to make this dish on a busy night.

    • In the summertime, I use the same marinade and make this Instant Pot chicken shawarma by pressure cooking boneless whole chicken thighs for 10 minutes, finishing on a barbeque grill, and slicing into thin strips before assembling the shawarma.

    • Although it might seem that there isn’t enough liquid for the Instant Pot to come to pressure, I’ve never had trouble building pressure in my 6 quart Instant Pot with this recipe.  That being said, if your Instant Pot is picky about the quantity of liquid (eg. some newer model Instant Pots, particularly the 8 quart Instant Pots and burn messages), please add 1/4 cup of chicken broth or a little extra yogurt.  You might want to increase the quantity of spices if you do that.

    If you’re new to the  Instant Pot and aren’t familiar with how to use it, please read the Instant Pot  DUO Beginner’s Quick Start Guide or the Instant Pot ULTRA Beginner’s Quick Start Guide first and then come back here to learn how to make this Instant Pot Chicken Shawarma.

      I made this tonight and it was delicious. I had only about 1/2 hour to marinate and it came out great. i did not use the white sauce, instead used Tzatziki and it was a great and authentic addition to the wrap. I also poured off and reserved some of the cooking lliquid after NPR, leaving a little, and sautéed and deglazed right in the instant pot and the chicken was moist and tasty.

      I made this last night and I believe it will become a regular in our house. My husband and I have been so sad ever since a great shawarma restaurant near our house got turned into a French restaurant.

      I marinated the chicken for about a day prior and I think it really helped to keep it moist and full of flavor. Followed the recipe exactly afterwards and my house was so fragrant! My kids didn’t like the white sauce, but they ate some of the marinated chicken with pita, veggies and hummus. I also added sweet potato fries. The dinner was fantastic. I’m so happy I found your blog, thank you!

      I’ve made this recipe twice. I’ve had some really good shawarma and this is highly comparable. Letting it marinate over overnight makes a world of difference. This recipe is now going to be in permanent meal rotation at our house. We like ours with a hot sauce. Thanks for the awesome recipe.

      I’m super excited to try this recipe since my significant other and I really enjoy Chicken Shawarma at restaurants. I do have a question though, do you think the recipe would still be ok if I used dairy free yogurt? I’m lactose intolerant so when we eat it out at a restaurant I just take a pill so the dairy doesn’t effect me. I’d prefer not to do that at home if I don’t have to and can make the food myself. There are some really good coconut milk based yogurts out there but I don’t know if they would work as a substitute.

        Jennifer, do you use dairy free yogurt in other pressure cooker recipes? If you do, then I see no reason you wouldn’t be able to substitute. However, I’m not sure what happens to those yogurts when you pressure cook them, so I can’t say for sure – I would try it out with a small amount first so you don’t waste in case it doesn’t work out. Thanks for your question.

        Andrew, I’m not a fan of cooking chicken breast in the Instant Pot because it is a lean meat and the IP is best for meats with some degree of fat 🙂 However, since the chicken is submerged in liquid I think you can use chicken breast and pressure cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Hope you like it.

        Hi Missy – my only concern would be freezing the yogurt. Frozen and thawed yogurt can have a watery consistency but since you’re cooking it anyway maybe it would be okay?

      I made this tonight and it was really very good. I had no issues with it coming up to pressure or cooking it for the amount of time as written.
      When it was done cooking in the IP I browned it in a cast iron skillet for about 5 min to give it some crusty texture. Then I put it on a bed of hummus and added tomatoes and shredded lettuce. The house smells like a Greek restaurant for an added bonus. Thank you for sharing this much healthier version as the one I had previously called for using 1/2 c of oil to marinate. Your recipe was just as tender and flavorful. ! 😁💜

      You forgot to mention that the instant pot needs at least 1 cup of water in order for pressure to build.

        Hi there Ele, the quantity of liquid an Instant Pot requires to come to pressure can vary from model to model. You will need to add the quantity that’s right for you. It’s not essential for the liquid to be water – the yogurt and lemon juice work just as well. My Instant Pot comes to pressure with the ingredients that I’ve listed in the recipe but your Instant Pot may require additional yogurt or broth, as I mention in the Tips section.

      I made this recipe last night in a 6 quart duo instant pot. I followed the recipe as written. My pot would not seal! It hissed and hissed and steamed. I cancelled and added a 1/4 cup of chicken broth as noted. Tried again, no luck. I opened it again and the chicken was cooked so I put it on a sheet pan under the broiler, basting with the an juices until it was browned. I think the problem is because (and I missed this) that when waiting for pressure the first time, most of the liquid had boiled off leaving a little bit of a browned area at the bottom of the pot. The 1/4 cup of broth wasn’t enough to get me back on track.

      I assembled as described and it was delicious!!

      Anyway, I will make this again, but saute on the stovetop & use the broiler again

      I can’t wait to try this recipe tonight with all of those fabulous spices! Thank you for all the great tips. I’ve started using chicken thighs for everything because of your use of it in recipes and the fact that it turns out perfectly every time. Thank you for your hard work developing recipes with wonderful step by step photos and tips. Much appreciated!
