About Shawarma with chicken
Shawarma with chicken is a savory Middle Eastern dish, renowned for its bold flavors and satisfying simplicity. This popular street food consists of marinated chicken, seasoned with a blend of spices like cumin, paprika, garlic, and turmeric, and slow-cooked on a rotating spit for tender, juicy slices. Typically served in a pita or flatbread, it’s accompanied by fresh vegetables such as lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions, along with a creamy garlic sauce, tahini, or yogurt-based dressing. Rich in protein from the chicken and containing essential nutrients from the fresh vegetables, this dish offers a balanced option for those seeking a flavorful meal. However, its nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation; calorie counts may increase with generous portions of sauces or oils used during cooking. Shawarma is a delicious way to explore Middle Eastern cuisine but should be consumed in moderation to ensure a healthy diet balance.
