I thought Shawarma was the actual sliced meat. Is there a specific rice that goes with it? Dish looks tasty too.

I think typically you use Basmati rice for making shawarma rice, as for the meat we only had chicken thighs on hand at the time, would've loved to have shredded lamb with it too. Also made tahini sauce to go with it not included in the picture though

Shawarma is definitely the meat (traditionally cooked on a vertical rotisserie), but "shawarma rice" is a popular dish where the seasoned meat is served over rice thats been cooked with similar spices (usually cardamom, cumin, cinnamon, bay leaves) - its basically a deconstructed shawarma wrap with rice instead of bread.

I did not know that!
