# How to Cook:
01 - In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Add sliced chicken and toss thoroughly to coat. Marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor.
02 - Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing if necessary.
03 - In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, water, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, cumin, and honey or maple syrup. Adjust water gradually to achieve a creamy, pourable consistency.
04 - Divide mixed salad greens evenly among four bowls. Arrange diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, shredded carrot, sliced bell pepper, Kalamata olives, and avocado slices on top of greens.
05 - Top each bowl with warm chicken shawarma slices and drizzle generously with lemon tahini sauce. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side if desired.
