About Chicken shish and chips

Chicken Shish and Chips is a flavorful dish combining marinated chicken pieces with crispy fried potatoes. Originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, the chicken shish is traditionally prepared by marinating chunks of chicken in a blend of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and spices before grilling or roasting for a smoky and tender finish. Served alongside golden chips, this dish offers a mix of protein from the chicken and carbohydrates from the potatoes. Grilled chicken is a lean source of protein, low in fat, and rich in essential nutrients like selenium and B vitamins. However, the chips, often deep-fried, can be high in unhealthy fats and calories if not prepared with healthier alternatives like oven baking. A balanced version of this popular dish can be achieved by pairing grilled chicken with baked or air-fried chips and a fresh vegetable side for added fiber and vitamins.
