Wash and dry produce. Zest and quarter @lemon{1}. Halve, peel, and cut @onion{2} into ½-inch-thick wedges. Using the tip of a spoon, remove and discard black gills from undersides of @portobello mushrooms{4}; cut into ½-inch-thick strips.

In a #medium bowl{}, toss together @red cabbage and carrot mix{8%oz}, @sugar{½%tsp}, a drizzle of @olive oil{2%tsp}, juice from half the lemon, a pinch of @salt{}, and @black pepper{} until thoroughly combined (for 4 servings, use 1 tsp sugar and juice from whole lemon). Refrigerate until ready to use. Open package of @chopped chicken breast{20%oz} and drain off any excess liquid. Heat a drizzle of @cooking oil{3%tsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add chicken in a single layer; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, ~{4-6%minutes}. Transfer to a plate; wipe out pan.

Heat a large drizzle of oil in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, ~{4-5%minutes}. Add another large drizzle of oil and mushrooms to pan. Season with half the @shawarma spice blend{1%tbsp} (all for 4 servings), a pinch of salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to medium low and cover. Cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies are browned and tender, ~{3-4%minutes} (you may need to cook in batches for 4). Use pan used for chicken.

Meanwhile, in a #small bowl{}, whisk together @yogurt{4%tbsp}, @mayonnaise{4%tbsp}, and as much lemon zest as you like. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Toast @pitas{4%unit} until golden brown, then cut into quarters.

Divide veggies, @hummus{8%tbsp}, salad, and pitas between plates in separate sections. Serve with white sauce on the side. TIP: Enjoy with your favorite hot sauce if you like things spicy! Divide chicken, roasted veggies, hummus, cabbage mix, and pita between plates in separate sections.
