Instructions to make Chicken Shawarma with tahini yogurt sauce:
  1. Combine marinade ingredients in a large ziplock bag (or bowl).
  2. Add the chicken and use your hands to make sure each piece is coated. If using a ziplock bag, I find it convenient to close the bag then massage the bag to disperse the rub all over each chicken piece.
  3. Marinate overnight or up to 24 hours.
  4. Combine the Yogurt Sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix. Cover and put in the fridge until required (it will last for 3 days in the fridge).
  5. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  6. Bake for 35-40 mins for bone-in and 25-30 mins for boneless.
  7. To serve: cut chicken into pieces and wrap in flatbread along with yogurt sauce, lettuce, tomato and cucumber.

The traditional shawarma sauce calls for mayonnaise. But I replaced you with protein-rich Greek yogurt. Wrap the chicken and onions in flatbread, add the rest of the veggies, and then you'll just need a bit of yogurt sauce to finish things off. This garlic yogurt shawarma sauce is just unsweetened yogurt, a bit of lemon juice, garlic, and salt and pepper. The yogurt in the marinade gives the chicken both its tender texture and its alluring char.
