800g thigh fillets
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon Moroccan seasoning spice mix
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1. Trim fat from thigh fillets and cut in half.
2. Combine remaining ingredients in a large
bowl and marinate chicken for 3-4 hours in

spikes onto the rotisserie rod about 6-7cm
towards the squared off end of the rod;
lock in place with the thumbscrew.

them as close together as possible.
Place the other spike onto the other
end of the rotisserie rod and push the
chicken together. Lock the spike with
the thumbscrew. Reserve any remaining
marinade.

using the rotisserie handle. Cook chicken,
brushing occasionally with any remaining
marinade for 25-30 minutes or until

screws and spike will be very hot.

in pita bread with tomato, lettuce, onion and
cucumber yogurt sauce.
