Me, Ill have the chicken sharm waram aram larm awahllalrwah, please. The waiter
thought I was such a darling that he wiggled his naked toes right in m y food.
Have you shawarm alaram ad before? Its basically a popular M iddle Eastern wrap
where you grill all kinds of m eat on a huge vertical rotating spit for like, ever. And

then you shave the m eat off and wrap it all up in warm pita bread with grilled
veggies and this piiiim p dressing with tahini and yogurt and lem on. I m ean,
technically this isnt a TRUE shalarwarewalugh because I dont own a spit. Well, I
alm ost did. It was between that and a life-sized glow-in-the-dark blow-up giraffe
AND W E BOTH KNOW W HAT THE OBVIOUS CHOICE IS HERE.

And Im sorry but three as in a row is really confusing, ARABIA. This is why Ive
taken the liberty to abbreviate the nam e to sharm a-larm a-ding-dong.
Works m uch better for m y m outh. And brain.

So yeah, check it: youll m arinate the chicken in a stellar m ix of spices, oil and
lem on juice. I let m ine sit overnight, because Im exercising m y patience skills this
sum m er like a good girl.
(You should probably stick your finger in that m arinade <before you add the
chicken!> and taste it and freak your face and annoy your husband for the 20th tim e
that hour. I m ean day okay hour.)
And then saut som e onions and peppers. Do a little dance. Grill the chicken. Slap ya
m am a.

Really. Really, really really. The warm , soft pitas cradling all of the spicy, tender
chicken and veggies, coated in a sm ooth, bright yogurt sauce with fresh tom atoes
and crisp lettuce? Saddle up, kittens.
