The title indicates you can use an already-cooked rotisserie chicken for this recipe but there are no directions for that...

Made this for dinner tonight and was great. Marinated last night , baked tonight and made pita sandwiches with hummus and tahini lemon sauce and veg. Was extremely satisfying. Will be making again and again.

I made this last night with 45 minutes of marinading time and thinly sliced chicken breasts - beyond delicious. ( I was out of ground cumin, had to crush seeds - I think that helped a lot with the short marinade time). Thank you!

So happy to hear you enjoyed the recipe! I love making this in bulk and having it on hand for the week, so great in salads, sandwiches and just on its own with veg and rice! :)

Very versatile marinade: I used this recipe to marinate 1lb. of thinly sliced chicken breast for 24 hours, then grilled it for 4 minutes each side on med-high. Its still ZOMG and I have done it with thighs in the oven too. Served on garlic naan with feta, tzatziki, spinach, tomatoes and cucumbers. Leftovers going to jerk chicken wraps later with sautéed chiles and onions - (jalapeno, serrano, banana, poblano, and habanero, plus scallion and red onion)

Made this last night, when I was feeling tired and not up for much cooking, so I loved how easy it was. It was super flavorful, and I will definitely be keeping this one in the back pocket. I didn't serve it as a wrap though; I made some brown rice and served the chicken on top of it, with various store-bought toppings (taboule, feta, olives, etc.) and some pita chips. I used 1/2 tsp cinnamon, which worked well for me! Amount isn't noted in the recipe.

Sounds great with rice and toppings! 1/2 tsp cinnamon is the perfect amount - I just updated the recipe, thanks for mentioning! :)

The directions mention cinnamon but it's not in the ingredients list. Amount?
