Shawarma, also shaurma and other spellings, is a Middle Eastern meat preparation based on the doner kebab of Ottoman Turkey.Originally made of lamb or mutton, today's shawarma may also be chicken, turkey, beef, or veal, cut in thin slices and stacked in a cone-like shape on a vertical rottisserie. Thin slices are shaved off the cooked surface as it continuously rotates. Shawarma is one of the world's most popular street foods, especially in Egypt and the countries of the Levant and the Arabian peninsula.

Marinated chicken chunks are mounted on a large rotating skewer and then roasted slowly to perfection against a gas burning grill.  Due to the unavailability of such industrial roasters at homes, Chicken Shawarma has typically remained a restaurant dish.
