Sheet pan chicken shwarma

This is one of our regular go-to's.  Easy, delicious, fast, lots of possible variations.

Original recipe:  https://www.recipezazz.com/recipe/oven-roasted-chicken-shawarma-nytimes-25412

We eat this over rice or in a variety of different wraps (today we had whole wheat lavash bread for something else we were doing, and that gave it a nice earthy hearty flavor).  Sometimes we bother to make the lemon-garlic-yogurt, sometimes we just use plain yogurt and it's fine.

The thing to know about using this as left-overs is that you want to re-sear the meat/onion by putting 1-2 tsp oil in an iron skillet on high and letting it really char a bit before serving.

Here's what it looks like coming out of the pan:


Here's a day later when I'm just putting it on to re-sear:


Hopefully you can see additional blackened parts:


Today's version was on the whole wheat lavash bread with some yogurt, tomato and cucumber.  Delicious!
