One Chicken Shami is a flavorful patty often associated with South Asian cuisine, particularly Pakistani and Indian culinary traditions. Made by combining ground chicken, soaked lentils (typically chana dal), a mix of aromatic spices such as cumin, coriander, and chili powder, and fresh herbs like cilantro and mint, these patties are bound together with egg or a similar binder before being pan-fried to golden perfection. Packed with protein from the chicken and lentils, One Chicken Shami offers a balanced option for those seeking nourishing meals. However, while it is nutrient-rich, it can be moderate to high in calories depending on cooking methods, especially if prepared with added oils. Ingredients like turmeric and fresh herbs add anti-inflammatory benefits, while the absence of refined carbs makes it appealing for low-carb diets. Enjoy it as a wholesome snack or pair it with a salad for a light yet hearty meal.
