Chicken Shawarma is a flavorful Middle Eastern dish consisting of thinly sliced, marinated chicken cooked on a vertical rotisserie. The marinade typically includes a blend of warm spices such as cumin, paprika, and turmeric, along with garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Served in a pita or flatbread, it’s often accompanied by fresh vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions, and garnished with tahini, hummus, or yogurt-based sauces. High in protein, chicken shawarma provides essential nutrients, while its olive oil-based marinade contributes healthy fats. However, it can be calorie-dense depending on toppings, sauces, and portion size. Pairing it with a side of salad or opting for whole-grain bread can enhance its nutritional profile. Shawarma’s combination of bold flavors, tender meat, and nutritious ingredients makes it a popular choice with a balance of indulgence and health benefits.
