Shawarma style chicken

I have been craving chicken shawarma for a while now and decided to do an at-home version.  This is not true shawarma though because real shawarma isn't roasted in the oven. But it is really good.  Really good. I made some hummus and tzatziki sauce and bought some pita to complete the meal. I made a lot so we could have it for leftovers too (but that's always a struggle because my husband wants to eat all of it right away).



Ingredients

Marinade:
11 cup greek yogurt
2 large cloves garlic, minced
juice of large lemon
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon smokey paprika
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg


2 lbs chicken, cut into thin strips
2-3 tablespoons olive oil

Combine all ingredients for marinade in a plastic bag and add chicken.  Marinate for 3-4 hours to overnight.

Preheat oven to 400.  Spray rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray and add chicken.  Roast for 15 minutes then remove from heat.  Heat a large skillet over medium heat.  Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and some of the chicken (don't overcrowd) and sauté until brown.  Continue this process until all chicken is browned.
