Chicken Shawarma Sheet Pan w/ Tortillas

    Note: or skip the last 5 ingredients (yogurt thru lemon, not the topping) and just buy tzatziki sauce! OR buy shawarma marinade instead of first few marinade ingredients!

  1. Cut boneless skinless chicken thighs into chunks. Place in a large bowl.

  2. Drizzle with olive oil, 3 tbsp yogurt, tomato paste, juice of 1 large lemon, garlic cloves, oregano, paprika, cinnamon, cumin, and a couple pinches salt + pepper.

  3. Mix really well and marinate for at least 2-6 hrs, but ideally overnight (makes a big difference!)

  4. When you're ready to eat, remove chicken from fridge and let it sit at room temp for 30 mins.

  5. Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking tray with parchment or foil, and add the chicken to the tray a piece at a time (don’t overcrowd). Sprinkle with the sumac.

  6. Line another smaller baking tray and add the onion, making sure they’re well-coated in oil and salt.

  7. Pop chicken into the oven at 400F for ~25 mins.

  8. Pop onions into the oven after 10 minutes (for the last 15 minutes of chicken baking).

  9. Make the cucumber sauce by mixing ¾ cup yogurt, cucumber, dill, shallot, juice of half a lemon, a couple pinches salt & pepper. Mix well.

  10. Add onions to the chicken tray, and cover it all with dollops of the spread throughout, and lots of fresh herbs (parsley, dill, or mint).

  11. Serve in warmed tortillas!
