Instructions:

7. Assemble the shawarma by slicing the grilled meat into thin strips and serving it in the warm pita bread with the sauce, onion, tomato, cucumber, parsley, and cilantro.

Nigerian Shawarma Tips:

1. Use a mixture of beef and chicken for a more authentic flavor.
2. Add some Nigerian spices like suya pepper or yaji spice to the marinade for extra flavor.
3. Use a sweet and spicy sauce, like a mixture of mayonnaise and ketchup, to give the shawarma a unique flavor.
