Make your own shawarma spice mix and use it with a variety of meats including chicken, beef, lamb, ground beef, or even green beans.

I use this shawarma spice for many different dishes on my blog such as the Chicken Shawarma, the ever-popular Shawarma Ground beef and rice, green beans shawarma, as well as a low carb ground beef shawarma recipe I'm about to write up.

It's really easy, tasty and keeps well, so feel free to double, triple, or quadruple the recipe if you want and use liberally.

My grocery store doesn't carry coriander. Can I substitute anything else for coriander?

  Coriander is another name for cilantro. It’s the dried seed part. Maybe add a bit of fresh cilantro when you’re about to use the seasoning mix? You won’t get the same flavour, but you can use parsley as a sub sometimes too.
