I figured starting Monday off with a healthy sheet pan recipe would be a welcomed idea by all. Whether you celebrated the Super Bowl or not, it’s always nice to start the week off with something easy, colorful, and delicious. This sheet pan recipe is all of that, and I really could not be more into it. It’s SO GOOD. I actually made this just this past Friday. I had other plans for today’s post, but was way too excited to share this recipe. It’s one of those dinners I know I’ll be making time and time again. Over the years I’ve made a lot of versions of Shawarma, none of them all that traditional…definitely not this cauliflower Shawarma. But they’re all wonderful in their own way. Shawarma is a middle eastern street food made with roasted meat. Originally lamb was used, but it’s often made with chicken, beef, or pork as well. The meat is then seasoned well, and usually served inside a pita, or on a plate with hummus. I’ve been on a huge chickpea and sweet potato kick these last few weeks. So when I had the idea of a hummus bowl with sesame sweet potatoes, I knew I also needed to include chicken Shawarma. Quite simply, here’s a way to enjoy a bowl of hummus and middle eastern street food, both together for dinner. Perfect for Monday night, right? The quick break down of this sheet pan dinner. For starters, find yourself a good sheet pan. A lot of you have been asking what my personal favorite is. I love these USA Pans. I don’t use them in photos because they don’t project that “vintage” look I often go for. But I do use them almost everyday. The ridges keep food from sticking and make for easiest clean up. You got your sheet pan? Great. Now add some chicken breasts and season them well with plenty of garlic, smoked paprika (very important for flavor), cumin, and lemon. Add sweet potatoes, sesame seeds, and olive oil. Toss, toss, toss. Then roast in the oven until the chicken is cooked and the sweet potatoes are charring on the edges. While the chicken is roasting, mix up a simple arugula and sun-dried tomato salad. Locate some hummus (yes, store bought is totally fine), slice up some cucumbers, and crumble some feta. Once the chicken and sweet potatoes have finished cooking, toss everything together. I love swirling the hummus in the bottom of a low bowl and then layering in the chicken, sweet, potatoes, feta, arugula salad, and cucumbers. Oh, and the naan too You know you can’t forget the naan. It’s kind of like eating at a middle eastern restaurant snuggled in the heart of NYC. But better, because you’re nice and cozy in your own home. Bonus? This is such a great meal to incorporate into your weekly meal prep. If you make this sheet pan chicken Shawarma, be sure to leave a comment and/or give this recipe a rating!
