Homemade Chicken Shawarma
  1. Trim off any excess fat from the chicken thighs and add them to a bowl.

  2. Add the olive oil, salt, pepper, yogurt, lemon juice, and all the spices to the bowl and mix well.

  3. Thinly slice the red onion and mix it in with the chicken.

  4. Marinate the chicken for 2-6 hours, or preferably overnight.

  5. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Pack the marinated chicken tightly into a bread loaf pan and bake for 45-55 minutes.

  6. Remove the chicken from the oven, tilt the pan to pour out the excess juices, and save the juice.

  7. Flip the loaf pan onto a cutting board to remove the chicken and cut it into thin slices or strips.

  8. Serve the chicken shawarma however you like, such as on its own, on a salad, or in a power bowl.
