This is the Lebanese version of the Turkish doner kebab or Greek gyros. It is traditionally cooked on a rotisserie in restaurants but this recipe helps anyone make it at home. It can be served on top of a fatoush salad or in a toasted pita sandwich. Dede's garlic sauce is a perfect compliment to this sandwich and is traditionally served that way.

NOTE: TO USE DEDE'S CHICKEN SHAWARMA SPICE USE 1.5 tsp OF IT AND JUST OMIT THE CARDAMOM, 7 SPICES, PAPRIKA, CINNAMON AND CAYENNE PEPPER

This recipe will now become even more popular since the characters from the Marvel film The Avengers were eating it at the end of the closing credits.
