About Chicken shami
Chicken Shami is a flavorful patty popular in South Asian cuisine, particularly in Pakistan and India. Made primarily from minced chicken, split chickpeas (chana dal), and a blend of aromatic spices such as cumin, coriander, and garam masala, the mixture is bound together and pan-fried to create a tender and savory dish. Often paired with mint chutney or used in sandwiches, it’s a versatile and protein-rich option. Nutritionally, Chicken Shami provides a good source of lean protein thanks to the chicken, while the chickpeas add fiber and essential nutrients like folate and iron. However, the frying process can increase its fat content, making it less suitable for low-fat diets. For a healthier alternative, baking or air-frying can be considered. With its robust spices and satisfying texture, Chicken Shami is a delightful addition to any meal or snack routine.
