Chicken Shawarma — Middle Eastern recipe

Chicken Shawarma

Chicken thighs left overnight in spiced yogurt and lemon, then roasted hot on a sheet pan with sliced onion and finished under the broiler until the edges blacken. A real shawarma is shaved off a vertical spit; this gets you the same charred, spice-crusted edges in a home oven.
