About Chicken qeema

Chicken Qeema is a flavorful South Asian dish made from minced chicken cooked with spices, onions, tomatoes, and aromatic herbs. Perfectly balancing protein with robust seasonings like turmeric, cumin, and coriander, it’s a staple in Indian and Pakistani cuisines. Often enjoyed with traditional breads like naan or roti, it can also be paired with rice for a complete meal. The dish is relatively healthy, offering lean protein from the chicken, which supports muscle development and repair, while the spices provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. However, the nutritional value can vary depending on preparation methods; using excessive oil or adding heavy cream can increase its caloric and fat content. Opting for minimal oil and incorporating fresh vegetables, such as bell peppers or peas, can enhance its nutritional profile. Chicken Qeema serves as a versatile, nourishing option for those seeking bold flavors and wholesome ingredients.
