Cooking Steps
Melt 1 TBSP butter in a small pot over medium heat. Stir in ¼ tsp turmeric (½ tsp for 4 servings) until combined.
Stir in rice, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4), and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat.
While rice cooks, bring 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4 servings) to room temperature. Wash and dry produce.
Quarter lemon. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Dice tomato.
In a small bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Add water 1 tsp at a time until sauce reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and cook until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.
Add chicken*, Shawarma Spice Blend, ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.
Stir in stock concentrates and ¼ cup water (⅓ cup for 4). Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.
Fluff rice with a fork; stir in almonds and half the scallion greens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Toast pitas, then spread with softened butter. Cut each pita into four wedges.
Divide rice between bowls. Top with chicken and tomato in separate sections; sprinkle tomato with a pinch of salt. Drizzle chicken with hot sauce to taste. Drizzle white sauce over bowls; garnish with remaining scallion greens.
Serve with pitas and remaining lemon wedges on the side. TIP: If you like, scoop up some of the rice, chicken, tomato, and sauces with the pita and eat it all in one bite!
