* 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1 teaspoon mixed spice (middle eastern spices)
* 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground cardamom
* 8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs
sliced very thin, preferably shredded. If you keep the chicken partially frozen, and run it through the slicer on your food processor, this works perfectly.
*
* 1/2 cup tahini
* 1/4 cup plain yogurt
* 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
* 2 tablespoons lemon juice
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
* salt and pepper to taste

sliced very thin, preferably shredded. If you keep the chicken partially frozen, and run it through the slicer on your food processor, this works perfectly. Bake/roast the chicken in your oven at 400 degrees, stirring frequently to make sure all gets cooked evenly, about 1/2 hour or until done.
