Chicken Shawarma with Green Beans and Zucchini
Like most FW staff favorites, this one hits it out of the ballpark. Easy, tasty, healthy (I used Trader Joes Non-fat Greek Yogurt), how much better does it get. Mike's still licking his chops. Kudos to the team.

This was great, but I did make some modifications based on my kid's tastes and what I had on hand. First I used only 1 Tbs. oil to toss w/ veggies and it was plenty. Then I used 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts which I cubed into large chunks and marinated them in the spices for about an hour (I skipped the black pepper and used only 1/8 tsp. of white pepper because of my kids and went light on the allspice -- only used about 1 tsp.). I chunked up an onion and put it on skewers with the chicken. I skipped the oil in the yogurt and just did garlic, yogurt, lemon and about 1/2 tsp. of cumin. I hate to be a reviewer who made lots of changes but so few people review on this website (versus epicurious) I feel like ANY review is a helpful one.

My husband and I liked this.. my biggest complaint.. the pitas fell apart. i used regular size sahara brand.. wouldn't use again. could probably stand to use bigger than 6 inch. Also, i think you can get away with using a bit less oil for the vegetables. very tasty. and easy
