Turkish Chicken Shish on Lavash with Bulgur Pilaf

Yogurt and pepper paste marinated chicken chunks come off the grill smoky and blushing red, resting on soft lavash that catches every drop of juice. Tangy sumac onions, a charred tomato, a blistered green pepper and a tomato-rich bulgur pilaf complete a generous kebab house plate.

  3. Toss the onion slices with sumac, a pinch of salt and a few parsley leaves.

  4. Grill the skewers over high heat, about 450 F, for 10 to 12 minutes, turning every few minutes, until charred and 175 F inside. Grill the tomatoes and peppers alongside until blistered.

  5. Warm the lavash on the grill for 20 seconds and lay one on each plate.
