Beef Shashlik is a flavorful skewered dish originating from Central Asian and Middle Eastern cuisines, with variations popular in Russia, the Caucasus, and beyond. It typically consists of marinated beef chunks, often combined with vegetables like onions, bell peppers, or tomatoes, all grilled to perfection. The marinade commonly includes ingredients like yogurt, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, and a mix of spices such as paprika, cumin, and coriander, which infuse the meat with bold flavors. This dish is a good source of protein and essential nutrients like iron and zinc from the beef and vitamins from the accompanying vegetables. However, its nutritional profile depends on preparation methods. Grilling reduces excess fat, but fattier cuts of beef or excessive sodium in marinades may increase calorie and salt content. For a healthier option, choose lean beef cuts and moderate the use of oil and seasoning in the marinade.
