Recipe Description

I grew up in the Middle East in Abu Dhabi where Shawarma stalls graced every nook and cranny. When I think about a Shawarma, I think about the fresh pita, covered with creamy hummus, spiced chicken, pickled turnips and fresh herbs. This appetizer can be prepped ahead, assembled at the last minute and serves a large crowd and will bring all those fantastic ingredients together.
