Chicken Shawarma with Yogurt Sauce

Ingredients
¾ cup whole-milk plain yogurt, divided
1 small yellow onion, grated
2 tablespoons lemon juice, divided
3 cloves garlic, pressed or finely grated, divided
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
½ cup finely chopped seeded cucumber
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, cilantro and/or parsley
3 whole-wheat lavash, halved
Spinach & sliced tomato for serving
Directions
Preparation time: 35 minutes
Ready in: 1hour and 50 minutes
Combine ¼ cup yogurt, onion, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 garlic cloves, coriander, cumin, allspice, pepper, ¾ teaspoon salt and turmeric in a large bowl. Add chicken and rub the yogurt mixture into it. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 3 hours.
- Position racks in upper third and center of oven; preheat to 450°F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet; discard any remaining marinade. Roast on the center rack until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 165°F, about 20 minutes. Move the baking sheet to the top rack and turn the broiler to high. Broil until browned in spots, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board and let rest for 3 minutes. Thinly slice.
- Meanwhile, combine the remaining ½ cup yogurt, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 garlic clove, ¼ teaspoon salt, cucumber and herbs in a small bowl. Divide the chicken among lavash halves. Serve with the yogurt sauce and lettuce and tomato, if desired.
