Villa Jerrada Shawarma 50g Chicken over Rice Middle Eastern Spice Blend Levantine Method Syrian Family Recipe
Why We Love It
My family loves the Halal Chicken Over Rice with extra white sauce. As New Yorkers, we have tried many and plenty over the past 2 decades!
When I started my blog Hopscotchmom.com, I included a few shortcut variations of the recipe on my take of Halal Chicken Over Rice. I’m thrilled to finally say, my years of testing so many versions of Shawarma Spice Blends have ended- all of the many versions I tried before had good spices, but I found I had to practically add the whole small jar with those. Now, I found my go to Shawarma Spice Blend with Jilla Verada! No more scavenging for the 5 plus difference spices around my pantry on a busy school or work night to have to make this- I can just use this and just a few shakes season the meat perfectly- it would work just as deliciously on air fried cauliflower too- and i don’t have to use the whole jar to get flavor!
Feel free to email me for my version of homemade white sauce :)

• Made in United StatesAbout Villa Jerada
There’s a tuna sandwich I ate constantly growing up in Casablanca, Morocco. After soccer and surfing. At the market. As a celebratory meal after scoring a new pair of Jordans. Known as Thon Ohror, it’s tuna mixed with mayo and harissa, then spread on a baguette with hard-boiled eggs, olives, sliced tomatoes, red onion, potatoes, cornichons, and parsley. Those who know it live for it. A bite brings a smile to their face, a reminder of warm, sunny Moroccan days. Those experiences are exactly what I want to capture with Villa Jerada: a nod to the past with our feet firmly in the present. Our spreads, sauces, and spices honor the traditions woven through centuries of Moroccan and Levantine cooking, while introducing even the most modern cooks to the flavors I grew up with. We use recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation. So while our products would make any Moroccan grandmother proud, including my own, they also feel just as at home on today’s ever-changing, ever-evolving tables. Villa Jerada’s offerings, made from the highest quality, most painstakingly sustainable ingredients are my love letter to the flavors of the Levantine region, a place in the world that is so much richer and more beautiful than many in the west know. Read my letters in the form of harissa, Morocco’s signature condiment, bright chermoula, rich and luscious tahini, indispensable dukkah, and a ras el hanout that will warm your heart and turn a tough day around.
