Ingredients
2 and 1/2 pounds chicken tenders or boneless thighs
4 large onions, thinly sliced
lots of olive oil
2 tablespoons sumac
pinch of salt
2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
pita bread
Shawarma Sauce
almonds
fresh parsley
For the Chicken Seasoning:
olive oil
juice of half a lemon
1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt or to taste
freshly cracked black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 heaping teaspoons sumac
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425 F, 220 C.

Add the onions to a large skillet with about 1/3 cup of oil. Season with a pinch of salt and cook over medium heat until caramelized. About 15 minutes.

Place the chicken on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil and add lemon juice, and all of the seasonings. Toss to coat.

Roast the chicken on the center rack of the preheated oven until the internal temperature registers 165 F on a digital thermometer.

Chicken tenders take about 15 minutes and boneless thigh meat takes 20-25 minutes.

Once the onions are caramelized, remove from heat and add the balsamic glaze and sumac and toss together.

Chop the chicken and add to the onions. Toss together.

Prepare the almonds: Place the almonds in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Set aside to cool. Remove the peels and chop the almonds into slivers.

Toast the almonds: Heat 1-2 tablespoons salted butter in a small frying pan. Add the almond slices and cook over medium heat until golden. Lift out of the pan and drain on a plate lined with a paper towel. Reserve the butter to use in another recipe.

Garnish the chicken with chopped parsley and toasted almonds.

Heat pita bread and top with the sumac chicken and caramelized onions, shawarma sauce, and lemon juice or more Balsamic glaze.

Kali Orexi!

Notes
Alternatively toast the almonds in the oven (350 F) for 6-8 minutes until toasted.
