Is anyone else’s week flying by?
Because mine is and I am not sure if I am happy about it, tired or wanting it to slow down so I can get more done.
Super speedy post today because my mother is out of town with my brother and Asher needs her lunch packed, breakfast made, hair brushed so it no longer has dreads, clothes, shoes, homework done and like a gazillion other things….
All you mothers out there, you amaze me. How do you even get your thoughts in? I mean, Asher has been chating my ear off for the last twenty-four hours. NON-STOP talking. I love her, but jeez, she needs to shut it for like five minutes.
Anyway, this Shish Tawook is a recipe my brother Creighton insisted I make.
It’s marinated Lebanese chicken that you skewer and grill. It’s so, so, so simple, but packs in the flavor. He said there are three things I had to include, chicken, pita and garlic mayo. Oh, and he also said the meal is not even close to complete without a side of french fries. Could not agree more.
I switched the garlic mayo up a little and threw in some avocados and roasted garlic. I sort of despise the idea of mayo, so this is my compromise. Personally not much can beat it. So good.
Oh, and I added goat cheese too, because why not? It works.
Unfortunately, Creighton is actually not here. So I am probably torturing him with this post today. Although, he is most likely shaking his head in disgust over the avocado mayo and the added red peppers. Probably the goat cheese too. He loves cheese, but not the goat variety. Yep, he is one of the picky brothers.
But really, I promise, the avocado mayo is the mayo of the future. It’s kind of awesome with fries too.

Ok, just made this for dinner and it was fantastic! The marinade really adds some punch to the chicken. I added some red onion and tomato vinegar salad on the side and it was a perfect balance to the meal. It will now be in our regular meal rotation 🙂 Will post on my blog and will add a link to your site. Thanks so much for sharing! Love the site and the photography!
Thank you so much!! I am so excited you are liking my site! 🙂
ThiS looks great. I love the garlic acocado instead of mayo. I always try to replace mayo with avocado or Greek yogurt.
Thank you!
Made this for dinner last night and wow, YUM! I can’t for lunch today! Everyone NEEDS this in their lives. We only used 1 avocado and 1 pound of chicken and wrapped this all up in whole wheat tortillas (trying to be healthier) and it came out great (as have all of your recipes that I’ve tried!)
Thanks so much, Sarah! I am thrilled you guys loved this! Thanks!
This looks wonderful, do you by any chance have a recipe for the fries?
Thanks Heather! I used this fry recipe.
Your poor brother for not getting to taste this! It looks and sounds amazing. And avocado mayo has got it going on!! Yum!!
Thank you!
Over the top amazing!
Thanks Meredith!

I don’t know if I mentioned, but your photography is fantastic. Another winning recipe, great job Tieghan! 🙂
Happy Blogging!

Aww!! Thank you so much! It seriously excites me so much! 🙂
Darn. Wish I could have had it.
Okay, I need to make this recipe asap! The chicken looks incredibly flavorful, and the mayo…YUM!
The mayo is so good! Love when avocados can make an awesome sauce!
Roasted garlic avocado mayo! Sign me up for the future 🙂
I’m picturing me, a large bowl of roasted garlic avocado mayo and some crackers, and a book. Heaven.
Haha! Thanks Amy!
OMG! This looks so delicious. I wish some would appear in front of me right now! That mayo sounds amazing. I’ll be making this super soon.
Thank you!
Oh man, this looks all kinds of delicious! Def one of my favorite types of meals.
Thanks Crystal!
I feel your pain.. it is crazy hard to cook, shoot photos, edit photos, then write not only a good but coherent post all while a 2 year old pulling at your leg!!
Seriously loving this dish Tieghan I can seriously taste all the flavors now. The flatbread with the grilled smoky flavor of the chicken and vegetables combined with the avocado sauce sounds awesome. Pinned this and can’t wait to try! You definitely inspired me!
Seriously! It totally is! Go you for doing it every day!
Thanks Krista!
Everything you make always looks so appetizing! You totally “get” my tastebuds 😛
Thank you! 🙂
