About Chicken shawarma with garlic sauce
Chicken Shawarma with Garlic Sauce is a flavorful Middle Eastern dish renowned for its fragrant spices and creamy, tangy sauce. Traditionally, shawarma features marinated chicken seasoned with a blend of cumin, paprika, turmeric, and garlic, slow-roasted on a vertical spit for tender, juicy meat. It’s typically served in flatbread or alongside rice, fresh vegetables, or pickles. The accompanying garlic sauce, made with garlic, oil, lemon juice, and sometimes yogurt, adds a bold, creamy element to the dish. Chicken Shawarma is a rich source of protein from the chicken, essential vitamins and minerals from spices, and nutrients from fresh toppings like tomatoes and cucumbers. However, the dish can be high in sodium and fat, depending on the marinade, sauce, and preparation method. For a healthier version, grilled instead of roasted chicken and moderation with the garlic sauce can balance its indulgent yet nutritious qualities.
