Shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern dish that consists of meat that is marinated and cooked on a vertical rotisserie. This sheet pan version simplifies the cooking process while retaining the flavors.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp ground paprika
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. 2In a large bowl, combine olive oil, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to create a marinade.
  3. 3Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight in the fridge).
  4. 4On a large sheet pan, arrange the marinated chicken thighs, red onion, bell pepper, and zucchini in a single layer.
  5. 5Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  6. 6While the chicken and vegetables are roasting, prepare the yogurt sauce by mixing the yogurt, minced garlic, dill, and parsley in a bowl. Season with salt to taste.
  7. 7Once the chicken is done, remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
  8. 8Serve the chicken and vegetables with a generous drizzle of yogurt sauce on top.
