BBQ kebab is a flavorful dish originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, now popular worldwide. Typically, it consists of marinated chunks of meat, often chicken, beef, or lamb, skewered along with vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and zucchini. These skewers are grilled or barbecued, imparting a smoky, savory taste to the ingredients. The marinade usually includes olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and aromatic spices such as cumin and paprika, boosting the dish’s richness. BBQ kebabs can be a healthy meal option, as they are high in protein, vitamins, and antioxidants from the vegetables. Grilling minimizes added fats, providing a lighter alternative to fried dishes. However, the sodium content from marinades and the charred portions of the meat may pose health concerns if consumed excessively. For a balanced choice, consider lean cuts of meat and pair the kebab with wholesome sides like whole-grain pilaf or a fresh salad.
